Intermix is a Thanksgiving event hosted by Baruch’s Study Abroad Office. This was the seven-year anniversary for this particular event. A delectable replica of some of the common foods enjoyed at a Thanksgiving meal were served. The likes of mashed potatoes, turkey, sweet corn, cranberry sauce, stuffing, pumpkin pie and apple pie were included.

Evidently, this was the real deal! Not to mention the food was just superb! (Thank you Study Abroad Office ). This was the first Thanksgiving experience for the vast majority of the exchange students who were in attendance. The chatter and excitement that filled the room resembled how such an experience for them was enlightening and ultimately part of the reason why they came to study in the United States. The event really gave the students a chance to experience some American culture.

Intermix this year had a great turnout! The amount of people who attended this fairly new event was surely a sign of the Study Abroad programs growing success. Not only did we get a chance to share what Thanksgiving is about with the students, we also got a chance to hear about other cultures from the students in attendance.
