- Myths
and
realities
of
the
International
Student
Experience
Building
on
their
session
at
the
Staff
and
Advisor
Conference,
the
presenters
will
speak
to
the
complexities
when
thinking
about
the
international
student
experience.
Our
international
student
population
comes
from
over
100
different
countries
and
brings
with
them
unique
experiences
and
perspectives
that
enrich
our
campus
community
and
classroom
environment.
During
this
session,
we
intend
to
address
the
following
questions
through
enriched
dialogue:
-
Who
are
our
international
students?
From
visa
status
to
language
skills,
what
are
the
many
nuances
behind
‘international’?
-
How
do
we
learn
from
our
diverse
international
population?
-
What
role
does
our
campus
community
play
in
supporting
international
student
success?
At
the
end
of
this
session,
participants
will
leave
with
an
understanding
of
the
varied
international
student
experiences
with
the
intention
of
supporting
a
culture
of
inclusivity,
diversity,
and
acceptance
