The 41st Annual Association of International Students (AIS) Banquet was held on Feb 8th. The theme was “It’s a lovely world”.
The AIS banquet is one of the biggest campus events at Missouri State. It brings students from different countries together to showcase their cultures through authentic dishes and unique performance. It gives the campus and Springfield community a chance to get exposed to diverse cultures and build cultural competence.
International students prepared the dinner in one of the dinning halls on campus. They wanted to make sure guests will have a taste of their home country. After the dinner, international students put together a tremendous show for the guests. Representing countries include: Bolivia, Brazil, China, India, Japan, Mongolia, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, US and Vietnam.
