SIUE International Students

Happy Valentine's Day! Love is in the air today, and we love our amazing international student community! Swipe to see how our global family has grown over the years.

Last Friday, we kicked off our second semester of the International Student Mentorship Program! The program paired 12 new students with 10 awesome student mentors.

ISMP aims to promote a thriving international community and form long-lasting relationships. After the program orientation, our mentors and mentees had a blast playing arcade games and some intense rounds of laser tag.

We can’t wait to see what the rest of the semester holds for our ISMP participants!
