Thanksgiving Dinner in an American Home
Members of the Northwest Arkansas community enjoy a Thanksgiving meal with U of A international students.
The iFriend Program at the University of Arkansas, in partnership with Spring International Language Center, would like to invite members of the campus community to participate in a program that connects international students and scholars with American hosts for Thanksgiving dinner.
If you are an international student or scholar, and you would like to experience American culture by joining a family in Northwest Arkansas for a Thanksgiving dinner, please sign up at https://goo.gl/jfnqbu. The students and scholars application deadline is 4 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 19.
If you are an American community member, and you would like to share your Thanksgiving dinner with a few students, scholars and their family members, please sign up at: https://goo.gl/kjRxOU. The host application deadline is 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 18.
A Thanksgiving Dinner Reception will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 23, in the Holcombe Hall living room. At the reception, Thanksgiving Dinner hosts and international students and scholars will meet with their dinner match. Then, they will exchange contact information and finalize their Thanksgiving dinner plans.
