In celebration of Africa Month, the Student Representative Council (SRC) kicked off an exciting and vibrant International Week. International Week seeks to promote and magnify the tongue-twister concept of Internationalisation to the student body. The focus was on Internationalisation through cultural exchange. In collaboration with the International Office, there was the convening of the International Students Forum, the revival of the beloved Language Carousel, and a spirited International Purple Thursday. As the SRC, it is important that we are a part of transforming our students into globally engaged individuals, and we hope to make Internationalisation at Home activities a year long.
