I am currently working on a project with the Buford Center for Diversity and Services (at the University of Findlay), to improve cultural diversity at the University of Findlay while helping build relationships between international and American students. With this project an increase in diversity and student involvement could be achieved, and also the following concepts:
Students could build new relationships through this platform.
Students could freely share their thoughts and cultures with other students.
Students could be culturally aware and enlightened about different cultures.
Students could apply these experiences in the real world.
The project was inspired by my personal relation as an International student as well as Buford center's desire to bring students together.
This project is to be achieved through discussions about fashion and culture.
