CGE Announces Fall 2017 Global Café Dates

UPDATE:

The Global Café scheduled for Friday, September 29, 2017, has been canceled.

We welcome you to join our next Global Café: Puerto Rico on Friday, October 6, hosted by the Puerto Rican Student Association. This event will support Puerto Rico’s hurricane relief.


FSU’s Center for Global Engagement will co-host four Global Cafés in fall on select Fridays from 11:30 a.m. until food runs out in The Globe Dining Room.

Students, faculty, staff, and members of the Tallahassee community enjoy authentic international cuisine and music at this student-led fundraiser for just $7 per plate (cash or check only). Fall semester Global Café dates and co-hosts include the following.

  • September 29, Myanmar, InternatioNole 
  • October 6, Puerto Rico, Puerto Rican Student Association
  • October 20, South Korea, Korean American Student Association
  • November 3, Caribbean Islands, Caribbean Student Association

This student-centered program increases awareness and appreciation of cultural diversity on our campus. InternatioNole will host the first Global Café of the semester featuring Myanmar.

“We hope to connect students to a culture we don’t interact with often,” said Ignacio Diaz, 2017-2018 president of InternatioNole. “Myanmar is rich in culture. They are a complex and diverse society, which we hope attendees can appreciate in part through their delicious food.”

InternatioNole’s mission is to create connections and friendships between international and domestic students in a positive environment. To find out more and get involved, search for “InternatioNole” on Facebook.  

This event counts as an intercultural event for the Global Citizenship Certificate
