Monmouth College (IL) Has Successful Cultural Fair






This past weekend Monmouth College(IL) hosted a highly successful Cultural Fair. For four hours on a sunny Saturday afternoon the Dunlap Plaza on the college's campus was home to sweet music, displays from around the world, and especially to glorious foods from sushi and satay to crepes and flan. My wife and I stuffed ourselves with goodies, chatted with old friends, met some new ones, and learned several things about the citizens of our world. This is indeed "What college was meant to be". Thanks to Ms. Ruby Pentsil-Bukari, Coordinator of Intercultural Life, who somehow managed to put this all together and still keep a big smile on her face (see just above), and to the weather, which was as perfect as it could be.
