VOLUNTEER WITH FRIENDS OF FOREIGN VISITORS
Often times, fear of the unknown keeps us all from experiencing
new people and things. Just think of how you felt when you were
thousands of miles away from home. People the world over have
similar wants and needs, including the exchange students who
come to Brown.
Exchange Students
- Exchange students come from Brown’s
partner institutions around the world.
- These students stay for varying lengths
of time - a few weeks, one semester, or a full academic
year.
- Visiting students attend Brown as either
fully matriculated undergraduates or as graduates conducting
research.
Role of Friends of Foreign Visitors
- Act as a resource for the exchange student.
- Advise the exchange student about shopping,
restaurants and entertainment in the area.
- Include the exchange student in activities
throughout the semester (e.g. plays, student parties, study
breaks, etc.).
- Assist with both short-term and long-term
visitors.
