A Window to the World

During Global Enrichment Fest, students sampled global cuisine, learned about different cultures, and enjoyed traditional customs without ever leaving campus.

COVID-19 may have disrupted many special events at USM, but thankfully it did not impact the annual Global Enrichment Fest, held in February. Sponsored by the Parents’ Association, the event featured booths—many staffed by USM parents—that represented countries from around the globe. Students learned about different customs and traditions and sampled many types of cuisines. Many thanks to all who volunteered, and especially to Meg Hernandez, Renee Mondano, and Isabela Sardas-Trevorrow, co-chairs of the PA’s Global Enrichment Committee.
