MSC takes on foreign look during
organization s International Day
By LAURA CORTEZ
Battalion Reporter
The first floor of the MSC was a
smorgasbord of foreign cultures
Monday.
Representatives of nine foreign
student organizations displayed var
ious articles from their homelands as
part of International Day, sponsored
by the International Student Or
ganization.
Members of one organization, the
Chinese Student Association, were
on hand to demonstrate the art of
Chinese writing, give instructions
on how to use chopsticks, explain
the art of Chinese face painting and
answer questions about their cul
ture.
Carlos Zuniga, a sophomore ag
ricultural economics major from
Guatemala, showed passers-by col
orful pictures of his country and
urged them to make a trip there
someday. He said many former
Texas A&M students live in his
country.
Among other examples of
Guatemalan craftsmanship, Zuniga
proudly displayed a large machete,
which he said he finds especially
useful around Bonfire time.
The Organization of Arab Stu
dents presented a slide show depict
ing scenes from several Islamic
lands, which Amer Kombargi, vice
president of the organization, and
Hakim Abu-Yasin, a member, ex
plained and discussed with in
terested students.
Among the items displayed by
this group were various articles of
traditional Arab clothing.
Other groups represented at
International Day were the Pakis
tanis, Puerto Ricans, Nicarauguans,
Indonesians, Iranians and Euro
peans.
Nancy Simmang, president of the
International Student Association,
said the purpose of International
Day was to let students know the
organization exists, and especially to
make the foreign students aware
that “we are here to help them with
any problems they may encounter.
She said the ISA works closely
with the international adviser on
campus, and assists foreign students
with things such as finding housing
and roommates, and answers ques
tions they may have about banking,
insurance and finding jobs.
The ISA is made up of six officers,
70 delegates representing the vari
ous foreign countries and a general
assembly, which brings the total
membership to about 400, Simmang
said.
There are 1,184 foreign students
on campus this semester, according
to the roster at the admissions of
fice.
