UVSC International Night to Feature European Nations
The Utah Valley State College International Student Council will host International Night 2005: "A Night of Enchantment in Europe" on Feb. 16 from 6-10 p.m. in the UVSC Grande Ballroom. The event includes a performance showcase and a five-course dinner with emphasis on Slavic countries.
"We are excited about the opportunity to share and to promote international awareness of other cultures to the college and community," said Rapten Chazotsang, UVSC assistant director of international studies.
The event started 10 years ago to emphasize UVSC's Statement of Values that states, "We recognize the unique international capacities and interests among our campus community and support experiences leading to an appreciation and understanding of our global society."
Every year the International Night spotlights one region of the world and presents the music, dance and food of that culture. Previous years featured African and Middle Eastern themes.
Tickets are $4 with a UVSC identification card and $6 without. For tickets, call UVSC Campus Connection at (801) 863- 8797. For more information on the event, call (801) 787-1205.
