“I truly enjoyed being able to spend time with people who are from different countries. It really helps me gain perspective on the world.” – SNHU education student, March 2011

“The combined classes provide a good opportunity to foreign students to make friends and get to know the American culture. It's very creative in a way that it can educate both domestic and foreign students.” – SNHU international student, November 2010
