"I believe that one of the most important aspects of being an international student in the USA is what you can share with others. Don't ever forget who you are, but even more, make sure to tell your experiences and reality to other people. You are an ambassador for your culture and you play a role of bringing new perspectives to campus. At the same time, ask and listen to what others have to say about their reality. There is so much to learn! Take advantage of the very diverse community we have here at ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳. It is like you can be anywhere in the world without leaving campus."
