EMBRACING DIVERSITY AND GLOBAL CONNECTIONS AT INTERNATIONAL HOUSE Residents at our lovely diverse home immerse themselves in a tapestry of cultures, traditions, and perspectives, fostering a transformative environment that goes beyond just a dormitory. I-House is a cultural melting pot where lifelong friendships and connections are forged, transcending borders and cultivating intercultural understanding. The initiative led by Excellence Joshua, a Global Community Ambassador, highlighted the stories and contributions of the diverse residents, particularly those from the African diaspora. Through interviews with current and former I-House residents, a rich history of trailblazing Black leaders, who have shaped the fabric of the community were uncovered. These stories of resilience, achievement, and a commitment to a more just and inclusive world serve as inspiration for future generations of I-House residents to dream big and pursue their passions within this welcoming environment. The I-House experience is a testament to the power of diversity, where the sharing of meals, traditions, and narratives cultivates a deeper appreciation for the global community and a shared vision for a more connected world through very relevant moments like Black History Month.
