Last call for today’s dessert!
We still have spots available for today’s dessert hour with Prof. Andrea Siqueira! Email me ASAP if you’d like to attend. This will take place from 1:00-2:00 in the Tudor Room of the IMU and you get FREE DESSERT!

Enrollment Dates
Take a second look at your Student Center for your Fall enrollment date. It’s very easy to confuse it with your summer one. Your date for fall will be sometime in April. Your summer enrollment date will be in March.

INTL 200-level course changes
Please note that INTL core courses (I 201-206) are no longer reserved exclusively for our majors/minors. Please be sure to register for your core classes on your enrollment date so you won’t miss out on the courses you want.

Overseas Study Q&A
Mark your calendars and watch for flyers! Current INTL students will be sharing about their experiences abroad on Wednesday, April 6 at 6:00 in Ballentine 217. Come talk with them and hear about overseas study!

Careers with NGOs
If you’re interested in working with NGOs or IGOs, don’t miss this event!

Apply for Internship Funding
If you are completing an unpaid internship in the U.S. this summer, read about the Parents Fund Internship Housing Grant in the latest CDC Newsletter. You may be eligible for funding to put toward living expenses!

Volunteers Needed
OASIS (Outreach and Support for International Students and Scholars) is seeking American student who are interested in learning about different cultures and helping international students learn about American culture and language. Read more here.

Holland Award
Have you had a particularly fantastic professor this year? Nominate them for the Holland Award for Exemplary Teaching & Service to Students in the College of Arts & Sciences!

Job Postings
I’ve attached two emails with job postings, particularly for those of you interested in Eastern Europe.

Advising Appointments/Walk-in Hours
You may request an appointment to discuss your fall plans using the link below in my signature. In your request, please let us know your class standing and enrollment date. We will do our best to get you in before then. Please note that there will be no walk-in hours on Wednesday, March 30.

As always, thanks for your patience as I respond to your emails. If you’ve sent something recently, I have received it and will get back to you as soon as possible.
