As important as it is to stay in tune with people from your home country, it is vital that you meet other
international students as well as American students. Remember, you are here for an American
education. This doesn’t mean just inside the classroom, but it also means to learn outside of the
classroom. In fact, it is outside of the classroom where you will learn the most important lessons in life,
many of which you will take with you to wherever you go.
