CLUB INTERNACIONAL  // CLUB INTERNATIONAL 
 
... held its premier meeting in September 2009.  The students who attended had a great time making "papel picado" and eating Mexican snacks to celebrate Mexican Independence Day, September 16th!  We talked about our different heritages a bit and decided that we'd like to know about a wide range of countries and cultures. 
In other words, CLUB INTERNACIONAL is exactly where lots of students want to be once a month.
