International Week is an opportunity for international students and local students alike to learn more about each other's cultures.

“The international week will have many surprises. Something to watch out for the coming Monday in the D junction, Bookstore corridors and the T building,” said Visvez Pathkar, co-ordinator of Fanshawe International Week, which starts February 2.

The day an international student steps into Fanshawe College, they find a home away from home.

The flavours of intense diversity reflect every time the door swings, welcoming students for the awaiting avenues. The term started with cheerful yet nervous fusion of diversity near the Fanshawe International Centre.

International week is highly anticipated by the international student population every year.

“The settling in was not as overwhelming as I anticipated it to be,” said Mark Korovsky, an international student from Russia.

The International Centre now takes the chance of cheering and blending the crowd in their home away from home.
