Two full buses with 110 students and staff headed over the CSU mountain campus in the morning of October 1 to spend a weekend in the mountain. Among those 110 people, about 25 students were from China. Other people were from America, and over 10 different countries.
After lunch on October 1, the students were divided into 8 small groups, with two group leaders and culture mentors. 4 groups did the cultural discussion first and then did the low rope courses and then switched tasks with other 4 groups. In the cultural discussion, the group leaders prepared some ice breaker games, cultural questions, and cultural scenario for students to discuss their experience as an international students studying at CSU. During the low rope courses, students communicated with each other and worked together as a team to finish 3-4 projects. On October 2, over 90 students went to a 3.5-hour long hike. Other students enjoyed the free time and beautiful view at the mountain campus.
Weekend in the Mountain is always the most popular activity for international students. It is one of the unforgettable and wonderful experience at CSU.
