The 2nd Annual International Student Leadership Retreat will take place in Minnowbrook Conference Center starting at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 25 and ending at 7 p.m. on Sunday, March 26. This year’s theme is “Alliance and Advocacy: International Students in the US.” The retreat is a free event that gives international students the opportunity to participate in meaningful discussions, reflect on their experiences in American culture, and learn ways to connect and engage with domestic students. The retreat will empower international students to create meaningful exchanges with themselves and others around them at Syracuse University.
We invite you to join the Office of Student Living and the Center for International Services so you can learn about ways to get connected and engaged on campus. Students will be able to reflect on their own experiences and learn about others as well. Students will learn life skills that they can apply to their day-to-day life. Some skills include leadership, cultural awareness, communication, networking, adaptive things and resilience. The application link is due Sunday, March 12, 2023, at 11:59 pm. Please know space is limited.
