Final class potluck at the Global Lounge

msg to class and coordinators

Today we had our last class at the global lounge, where we had an international potluck! Alden came to visit us and we started talking about the future of the concept of cultures.

As a coordinator, from day 1 to the last day, the class has been a place for an inspiration and a motivation. Thank you to each one of you who supported our SDS and last but not least to everyone who made the decision to take our course. Our class is really a product of the collective effort. It was quite an experience to weave our personal stories together and discuss about new ways to understand and critique multiculturalism in Canada.

Anyhow, it was amazing having a seminar with all of you. All the best with your future endeavours!

Since we spent a lot of our time in classes discussing about the promotion of intercultural communication at universities,  here is an article that might interest you.

Interestingly Canada is not listed under the top 11 countries with overseas friendly universities.

FYI, we will be inviting the director of Go Global, Katherine Beaumont to our class on March 18th!

See you in class on Friday,

Asuka
