🎃 Happy Pumpkin Week, Saints! 🎃

We had a great time carving and decorating pumpkins and enjoying some delicious pumpkin soup on Monday! We hope you have a fun and safe weekend, and we hope to see you at Barney’s Boo Bash today from 4–8 p.m. in the Main Mall, rain or shine!

🧡 Coming Monday: Día de Mu***os celebration Nov. 2nd at noon.

Join us in the International Student Program office on Monday for sweet bread and an opportunity to learn about Día de Mu***os!

Día de Mu***os is a tradition with deep roots in Mexican culture, though traditions for honoring loved ones who have passed away are found in many cultures around the world. It is a time to remember and celebrate the lives of those we miss. Families may create ofrendas (altars or offerings) with photographs, flowers, food, and meaningful objects to honor their loved ones.

Whether your family celebrates Día de Mu***os, observes another remembrance tradition, or simply holds memories close in your own way, you're welcome here.

We'll have sweet bread to enjoy and an ofrenda in our office, and we'd love for you to help us make it special!

Would you like to include a photo?

You can honor a family member, friend, pet, or anyone who has made a difference in your life. Email a photo to [email protected], and we'll print it for our display. Feel free to include their name or a favorite memory, too. Please let us know if you're comfortable with us displaying the photo in our office.

We look forward to remembering, sharing, and celebrating together. 🧡

As always, the flower arranging demonstration at Coffee Hour is one of our favorites! Big thank you to Taeya’s mom Christy at Frank Adams Wholesale for her time teaching us how to take a grocery store bouquet and make it even better!

We also celebrated Vietnamese Women’s Day! 🌸🌼🌺🌻

COFFEE HOUR IS BACK — AND BETTER THAN EVER!
Taeya and Mo have been advocating, campaigning, and yes… yelling about Coffee Hour all summer.

Because students have continued to join us, we have made some BIG changes!
☕️Student Union
☕️Every Tuesday
☕️12–2 PM

That’s right — we’re moving to a bigger space, a more popular day, and a longer time because Coffee Hour has officially outgrown its space in the MDRC!
What started as a small events meeting in the back of the MDRC has grown into a space for international + domestic students to connect, practice languages, exchange cultures, meet new people, and build community 🌎

For our first Coffee Hour of Fall 2026, we had Vietnamese iced coffee, shave ice, free flowers and DJ Mo spinning music!
And we’re just getting started.

Have an activity you want to share? A cultural tradition? A game? A craft? Want to collaborate? Students, staff, faculty, and community members are ALL welcome. We’re looking for low-stress instruction to happen while people connect to keep Coffee Hour vibrant, welcoming, and reflective of our global community. Please reach out!

Next week celebrate International Coffee Day with Coffee Hour Cafe!
Come grab some coffee, enjoy a few small baked goods, and join us for an activity!

See you Tuesday! 🌎☕️
