Greetings everyone,
We are at the time of the year where international students are confirming attendance and looking for connection with other international students.
Currently we are reviewing our practices. A couple of questions for you all:
1) Do you offer international undergraduate students the option to share their name and email with other international students coming from their home country/region?
2) Do you share student-run WhatsApp groups with incoming students? (note, these are not monitored by staff)
3) Do you have your own WhatsApp or other social media group that you monitor? If so, what is your level of involvement?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
Beth
