In addition, about 55 area elementary students are scheduled to visit the campus earlier in the day Tuesday for cultural exercises hosted by the International Club.

CSC international alumni who live in Chadron will be featured during the “Looking Back and Into the Future” event Thursday, Nov. 18, at 7 p.m. in the Student Center. The closing event will be at the Bean Broker coffee shop in downtown Chadron as part of Open Mic Night on Friday, Nov. 19, at 8 p.m. The series began Saturday, Nov. 13, with a Kickoff Dance and Quiz Ball.

Iuliia Protopop, co-sponsor of the CSC International Club, said the events will embrace the uniqueness of nations, share rich cultures and improve global awareness on the CSC campus and the rest of the Chadron community.
