Host families needed to give international students a taste of American culture

International Student and Scholar Services is planning an Experience American Tastes (EAT!) event for Nov. 15.

The EAT! program provides international students and scholars with a chance to enjoy American food and culture with a local family. Community members and Vanderbilt staff and faculty volunteer to host a dinner and invite the international students and scholars to join them for an evening.

Students and scholars attend in groups of two to four and can make arrangements to be picked up by the host family on campus if needed.

To participate as a host family, sign up here.

If you are interested in serving as a host family but cannot participate this month, future EAT! dates are Jan. 24, Feb. 21 and March 27, 2016.
