The Conversation Exchange Program is a self-supporting program to match foreign students with American students for langauge exchange.
Students contact each other via email, and set up meeting times on their own.
The International Festival is a one day celebration of the various cultures and countries that are represented on campus. Students showcase their country and culture through displays at booths, performances on stage, and a sampling of free ethnic food. The organization's members host foreign students while they study here by taking them to events in the area, inviting them to dinner, or taking them on trips. In addition to the Welcome Picnic in the fall, BFIS organizes other events throughout the year as well. If you and your spouse would like to improve your English while forming a friendship with a person from the Boulder area, you may want to participate in the Conversation Partner Program sponsored by the Boulder Friends of International Students.
