The
International Advisory Committee is an executive student body that represents
the international students, and coordinates the efforts of the international
student organizations. There are approximately 2000 international students
on campus. These students need a voice to represent them, and the IAC
accepts the responsibility of being that voice.
What do we do? During the year, IAC works with various student organizations
(international and otherwise) to bring you such events as the International
Bazaar, the International Food Fair, and, most importantly, the Eve
of Nations. The Eve of Nations is a culmination of your international
experience at OU, a grandiose extravaganza, with dignitaries, spicy
foods, colorful attires, exotic music and dance, and lots of awards
that we compete for all year long.
In recent years, IAC also took action on such important issues as health
insurance, housing, phone rates, and scholarships. In fact, in 1997
IAC established an Emergency Relief Fund Scholarship, followed by
an Emergency Relief Fund Endowment Scholarship in 2000. IAC is looking
forward to an eventful and fun year. So come to our events,
and check out in how many languages we can say 'Welcome'.
