Invitation to Participate in Research Project

Greetings, international students!

I want to first thank each one of you for how you add to the cultural richness and international diversity that contributes so much to our Andrews University experience and identity.

With this in mind, I am writing with an exciting and important opportunity for you to help our Office of International Student Services better understand how we can more effectively serve our international students here at Andrews University.

Specifically, my colleague, Gilbert Wari, has begun work on a yearlong project for the College of Education & International Services to better understand the challenges, needs and successes of our international students on campus.

We would appreciate it if you could take a moment to assist with this project by simply emailing Gilbert directly at wari@andrews.edu with a response to these two questions:

1. What is your country of origin?
2. Based on your experiences studying on the Berrien Springs campus, in what ways do you feel Andrews University could better support its international students, make them feel happy, and offer them a sense of belonging?

Your participation in this project will just take a moment and will greatly contribute to our efforts to serve you and other international students effectively.

We are looking forward to hearing from you!

All the best,

Christian Stuart
Executive Director
