Torres said international students come to America to learn about the United States, and this week is a time for American students to learn more about other countries. Torres said she sometimes thinks others believe ISA does not accept American students. TCU recruits students from all over the world. Pennywell said there are about 425 international students representing 75 different countries. She said a larger portion of students comes from Latin America due to the interaction of different programs TCU has with them.
International students can learn as well.
Pennywell said this is also a time when students who fear studying abroad can learn a little more about different cultures. Torres said one of her concerns is that American students know international students exist on campus but know little about the countries from which they came from. Different events are planned this week in celebration of the different cultures. Torres said Taste of the World will be Wednesday in the Student Center. There will be 20 dishes from around the world free of charge.
