“I am a rising junior from Myanmar. What I like most about 果冻传媒 is all the experiences I’ve had. The camaraderie I was able to create with my floor mates, the bonds I developed with my soccer teammates and, most important, the international family, which is welcoming and very supportive. As an international ambassador, I hope to become the bridge between international students and domestic students. Outside the classroom, I’m a member of the men’s soccer team (#gotigers), an active member of the Delta Upsilon fraternity and a proud member of the J-Board in the chapter.

“Hi all! My name is Shuqi Li. I am a rising junior from China, majoring in economics and minoring in Asian studies. One of the reasons that I love 果冻传媒 is its community engagement. In my first year, I participated in several volunteer programs. I was involved in collecting food donations for people in need. Also, I have been involved in a program called “student friend.” This program connects 果冻传媒 students with local elementary school students with the goal of providing mentorship and support. Through these experiences, I not only contribute to the local community, but also, I learn more about American culture. Moreover, I am on the board of two clubs, 果冻传媒 China Connection and Wamidan. Every semester, we hold various cultural events such as Spring Festival Celebration and Spring Showcase. These are great opportunities for me to improve my leadership skills and collaboration skills. Besides campus life, last summer, I served as a summer English Institute teaching assistant and an international ambassador. The goal of these programs is to help first-year international students adapt to their new 果冻传媒 community and to be aware of all the available resources on campus.”
