Cultural Coffee Hours
What is a Cultural Coffee Hour?
The Office of International Services believes that cross-cultural understanding is an important part of being a citizen of the world. Cultural Coffee Hours are a time to learn about different cultures from around the world. International student groups organize coffee hours to highlight their culture, arts, interests, tastes, peoples, and to create an opportunity to welcome new and returning students, faculty, and staff.
Coffee Hours are held on Fridays from 4:00–6:00pm at Teter Quadrangle - NST (10th and Sunrise streets).
Who are coffee hours for?
Coffee hours are open to the public. They are meant to be light, entertaining gatherings for students, families, neighbors, and friends to talk and to learn about cultures and to relax on a Friday afternoon.
