It is becoming increasingly important for campuses to understand these students and how to bridge the cultural gap between them and other international and domestic students. How does group culture and shared experience affect the cultural and social integration of Chinese students on your campus? What are some of the best practices you can implement to gain campus-wide support for orienting and supporting these students? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>DATE: </b>Tuesday, December 4, 2012<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>TIME: </b>1:00-3:30 <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>LOCATION: </b>Career Services Workshop room, SUMC 411<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b>COST:</b> Free for attendees (ISS will be sponsoring this webinar)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The webinar is scheduled to last approximately 1.5 hours.
