Sorry for the lack of blog posts in the past few weeks! My schedule has been super busy and I've had projects galore. One thing I did manage to go to on Saturday was the International Festival. This festival is put on every year by the Applied Linguistics Department and the Diversity Coalition. It's really awesome because you get to sample foods from different cultures (cooked by many international students) as well as watch performances by various student groups, like the Celtic Knights, and other multicultural groups from around Vermont. It's a pretty well-attended event, as many professors bring their children and people from around the area as well as St. Michael's students all come to enjoy what is our own taste of the global world. Below are some pictures from the festival. I hope you enjoy them!!
