TriS group

Marlene and I were asked this fall to lead a TriS group.  TriS is part of our Study Abroad (SA)experience.  Each semester we have a group of 15-25 North American SA students come to LCC.  They live in the residence halls and attend classes at LCC.  The TriS part of the program consists of 3 meetings with a North American family to process their LCC experience.  We met in October at my place to process their cultural adjustment.  This month we met to discuss their Fall Break trip to Russia and next month we will meet to process re-entry to the US.  I have really enjoyed getting to know this group of young people and am going to be sad to see them leave at the end of the semester.  Here is a group shot we took at Marlene's place last week.
