African students - KARIBU!

  Even though all international students share the same sense of need to meet and get along with others in their new country, African students endure many unique experiences of their own. For whatever unfortunate reasons, The United States doesn't do very much to teach its youth about African culture & history. Consequently, students from Africa often find their American classmates to be rather unknowing when it comes to appreciating their heritage, style of dress, etc; 
    In addition to traditional ISUs, we recommend that African students form their own separate student unions for two reasons: On one hand, you'll enjoy the same benefits that all ISU members do: meeting and networking with other people who share a similar background and a common goal. On the other hand, you'll be able to utilize the organization and its resources to form cultural events on campus that seek to educate the rest of the student population about African culture!
