Student Participation
- The Center for Global Education would like one international student and one study abroad student to present each month.
Presentations should be fun and informal in nature, but provide students/staff who attend a general background on their international topic.

  - Travel Study Students
Presentations should be around 15 - 20 minutes.
- Students will need a powerpoint with photos.
- Students should allow 5-10 minutes for questions and answers.

To sign up:
- International students should contact Jessica Harmatys.
