Buddy Project

The Center for International Education offers the International Buddy Project as an opportunity to promote cultural exchange and international understanding. The program matches an international student with an American student at the beginning of every semester. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend the introductory meeting and then contact and hang out with their buddies at least twice a month. There have been many participants over the years.  A lot of them have found that participation in the International Buddy Project is a wonderful opportunity to make new friends from all over the world, learn about different cultures, and have fun. International students, especially the ones who are new on campus, have found that it is a good way to quickly emerge themselves in the American culture and new living environment, as well as to improve their English.
