The Lama Library is searching\u00a0for student facilitators who can help during\u00a0International Games Day (IGD) that is held in February every year.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are looking for students who have been in the Study Abroad Program to work for honorarium (pay),\u201d said Joy Oehlers, a\u00a0librarian in Lama Library. \u201cWe are also hoping that some who potentially might join Study Abroad will be able to volunteer for us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Former Study Abroad students who apply to become a student facilitator for this event will receive a stipend\u00a0hourly to their own flexible schedule. The library is even accepting students who may potentially join Study Abroad to volunteer for IGD. The student is expected to be engaging amongst other\u00a0students on campus who stop by or stay for the event, and be able to provide information about the different countries around the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

An application for a position as a student facilitator will be available around Oct.\u00a021.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe always have food samples outside of the library for students to try from around the world,\u201d said\u00a0Oehlers. \u201c… We want students who work for International Games day to be able to hand out food samples and drinks and be able to make buttons with students that represent international cultures.\u201d<\/p>\n

IGD began about three years ago and is normally held around the time of Spring Fest. Student facilitators get to pass out food samples and drinks that are made from around the world to help promote the Study Abroad Program that is offered on campus. Students who come to check out this event get to make buttons that represent international culture with the student facilitators, and do \u00a0\u201cLanguage Learning Speed Dating\u201d to learn the various languages from around the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a really good opportunity for the students to make new friends and get to learn about the different cultures we have around the world, and it really helps to promote our Study Abroad Freeman Program,\u201d said\u00a0Oehlers. \u201cSo I really hope that we\u2019ll get a lot of former Study Abroad students to apply and help us, and even potential Study Abroad students too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
