The FHSU International Student Service office encourages diversity with International Education Week

Next week the International Student Service Office invites all of the Fort Hays State University campus and the Hays community to encounter different cultures and countries by participating in International Education Week.

“This is a great opportunity for the international students on the FHSU campus to showcase their country and for those who participate in these events and activities to learn about other countries,” said Marnie Kohl, administrative specialist for the International Student Service Office.
