This class provides tools to succeed as an international student at Earlham. We discuss cultural adjustment and cross-cultural communication, using participants' current and past experiences as the basis for discussion. We examine Liberal Arts education and U.S. classroom culture, including expectations and policies at Earlham. Students learn about how U.S. laws pertain to them and how to navigate the U.S. healthcare system. Finally, students explore resources and opportunities available at Earlham College and in the Richmond community. Please note that this course is only for first year students who identify as international students.
