Hello Homeschool Families,
In May we had an outstanding visit from a representative of UAB’s International Student Community Sharifa Wip, who generously shared with us stories and experiences of her home country, Suriname. Ms. Wip, and the UAB International Mentors have extended an invitation to all interested Homeschool Families to attend their upcoming annual International Welcome Party. It promises to be an educational opportunity where guests can speak to representatives of UAB’s International Community, ask questions, sample international foods, and learn about different cultures first hand.
The event will be September 7th, 2017 from 5:00pm- 7:00 pm in the UAB Hall Student Center Amphitheater. Families with questions or who are interested in learning more about this community opportunity can speak to JoAnn Fong, the new Intern Coordinator @ UAB. Call the Student Multicultural & Diversity Program at UAB @ 205-975-8673, or email diversity@uab.edu.
