International Students at Clemson University are being offered an opportunity to stay with an American family during the upcoming Thanksgiving Break. Students will be assigned a family to stay with a family from Wednesday afternoon to Sunday afternoon November 23-27. Up to 2 students will stay in homes.
During the visit, the American family will explain their understanding of Thanksgiving and how they practice it. Students will enjoy making a possible long-term friendship with the family, talking with them about their family, lives, and attend a church service with them on Sunday. Most American families will serve a traditional turkey meal on Thanksgiving as well as many unique side dishes which may be served only on Thanksgiving.
If you are a Clemson student or scholar and would like to participate in this event, please contact Jon Varner at Friends of Internationals at the Clemson BCM.
