Staff members in S&T’s international affairs department were treated to refreshments on May 15 in the Southwestern Bell Cultural Center. Staff Council hosted the thank-you reception to show appreciation for the work employees do.
The staff in international affairs (IA) leads S&T’s efforts to promote international education and increase global awareness on campus and in the community.
Staff members provide personalized support services to international students and scholars, and offer numerous opportunities for S&T students to enrich their academic experience through study abroad programs.
The department’s signature event, Celebration of Nations, attracts more than 3,000 participants every September.
Dr. Jeanie Hofer, associate provost for international affairs, leads the department. Staff members have offices in Norwood Hall and the Southwestern Bell Cultural Center, which is home to the Applied Language Institute.
