Social Event
December 4th, 2019 in Smith-Steeb Lobby
The night before the first day of finals, I attended the Late Night Breakfast for IA, ACES and PSL. Breakfast food is my favorite, so to say I was excited for this event would be an understatement. It was a really nice way to begin my first finals week, and a great final event for my first semester in IA. While I was there I interacted with members of IA but also students in ACES and PSL. It was interesting to hear about their scholars program experience.
This was a great event for practicing how to interact with others who may have different experiences than you, which is an important skill in international affairs. Obviously, we had a lot in common being Ohio State students, and for the most part all first-year students. And in the international affairs world, there may be a language barrier and cultural differences. Regardless, this event was a great way to just interact with others and share our experiences. This event was important for me because it helped me reach a personal goal, which is to get out of my shell a bit more and meet new people. So, it was a great casual event to get to do just that.
