There are lots of fun and games at the beginning of an exchange year, but there is also some work to be done. This Texas group spent a day with their PAX coordinator doing their orientation. The students will spend time with their coordinator throughout the year, getting to know one another, sharing their exchange experiences, and learning more about Texas and their host community. A great start to a great year!
