Over a dozen students and faculty mingled over homemade dishes and drinks from a variety of cultural backgrounds during the Fall Member Welcome mixer, on Oct.19.

The International Student Club event, hosted by the Student Worldwide Association, aimed to bring people together by sharing laughs over various games and learning about an array of foreign customs.

The program celebrated bringing students and faculty from across campus together to celebrate diversity and to foster meaningful connections.

It welcomed new members to the club and introduced them to fellow students at SJCC.

Shana Siddik, a student club member, helped to create the agenda for the event, which included Jenga and Mancala among others, and offered prizes for the winners.

Thunn Thistar Swe Sin, club president, said that this will be a monthly gathering and that they are excited to be part of a club that works to bring students and faculty of different traditions together.
