International Café

This is a fun, casual group for both international and domestic students to get together and talk about issues related to culture, diversity, experiences in Canada, student life and current events. It’s a great way for students to meet new people, learn about different cultures and support each other in an informal environment.

Dates: Tuesdays, September 17th - November 5th, 2024

Time: 2:30PM - 4:00PM

Location: DSU 208

No sign-up is required.
