The event will feature international students sharing poetry and readings that remind them of home in their native language. Students will then talk about the readings in English. “This gives a chance to learn more about our international students,” said Dr. Danny Hinson, who helps oversee the event and serves as associate professor in the University’s Teaching English as a Second Language Program. Hinson says the experience is a good reminder that many students are far from home. Carson-Newman’s international students represent 28 different nations. The 4 p.m. event will take place at Carson-Newman’s Appalachian Cultural Center located on Russell Ave. Seating is limited.
