International Café

This is a fun, casual group for both international and domestic students to get together and talk about issues related to culture, diversity, experiences in Canada, student life and current events. It’s a great way for students to meet new people, learn about different cultures and support each other in an informal environment.

No sessions for the Summer 2024 semester. 

Sessions will begin again in the Fall 2024 semester. 

Dates: Tuesdays, September 17th - November 5th, 2024

Time: 2:30PM - 4:00PM

Location: DSU 208

No sign-up is required.
