In November 2010, 小黄猫传媒’s 鈥渉idden gem鈥 stepped into the spotlight as the eighth annual event filled all four major campuses with fashion, culture, and conversation. Powered by staff and students from the growing International Education Program鈥攖hen home to 700 students representing 90 countries鈥攖he week blended celebration with learning and invited the public to join.
Festivities featured the lively 鈥淧olynesian Revue鈥 at Cascade and a spirited 鈥淪ylvania鈥檚 Got International Talent鈥 showcase. At Southeast, political science instructor and Fulbright Scholar Michael Sonnleitner examined 鈥淎sian Giants,鈥 exploring prospects for conflict and cooperation between India and China.
