A Night of Halloscream With Campus Cousins
Campus Cousins and the Office of International Students and Scholars are hosting a Halloween-themed social "Halloscream" from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 30, in Holcombe Hall. The event will feature a "Thriller" dance, craft stations, a photo booth, snacks, punch, candy and lots of fun. This will be a great opportunity for students to meet new people, make friends and have a Halloween experience. All U of A students are welcome to join. Costumes are optional.
This is the official kickoff of Campus Cousins socials this semester. Information on upcoming socials is forthcoming.
The Campus Cousins program matches international students with domestic students to establish a peer friendship. Participating students partake in campus life and campus events and share their cultures of origin with their campus cousin.
Campus Cousins hosts and students are identified at the beginning of each semester. The recruitment for spring 2016 will start soon. For more information about Campus Cousins, contact the program coordinator Karen Beitle via ifriend@uark.edu.
