During the second half of the meeting, you can visit game and demonstration booths, try international snacks and meet people from all over the world.

American students, international students, scholars and families are welcome! This event is open to the campus and community. If you have any questions, please contact Cynthia Smith or Gemma Gomez at ict@uark.edu.
