UM-Flint Center for Global Engagement

Here’s what CGE had going on in January - We welcomed our new students, threw a party sponsored by ISO to welcome our international students back to campus, explored career topics with biweekly workshops, trained our students on what work authorization looks like in the US and how to apply, and we closed out with writing letters to our loved ones near and far during Week of Wellness. So many wonderful things are happening in CGE - come see us this month!

We hosted our second “Cook w/ Me!” event, where international students cook their favorite recipes from home together and we eat family-style. Swayam Kaur hosted today, and made vegetable pakora, kadhi, and chai tea - all of which was delicious ❤️ ❤️
