Maybe they'll let you do a dinner too if you can point out the distinctiveness of your home culture. I think the prez has a point though that most of the people on this campus do have a good amount of exposure to American culture in general. Hmm... I've having a hard time seeing ways to make the group equally inclusive to both foreign and local students as it seems you want... I don't know...

Distinctive? My culture? See earlier identity crisis post.

Well this year, when I asked the leaders of the club (seniors this year) what it was about, they said to discuss important international issues. Granted, we never did that because we never had a single meeting. I'm just thinking that the 'solution' to that is kind of exclusive.

I mean in terms of food. I'm guessing that your family doesn't strongly connect with any country of origin in terms of food, but is there anything that your community has that might be considered different from the typical American diet? I could argue that my community does, but I'm not sure if they would want me to come up with 10 different ways to eat brats :)

Anyways, to get back to a relevant point, that idea of having meetings to discuss issues sounds good. Or, if they insist on having "events" you could try setting up dates for a discussion group related to different issues on certain dates and then people can show up to the ones they want. That's essentially the same thing as a meeting, but the different terminology might click better with senior presidente. Well, ttfn and have a great day!
