It is with great pleasure that I open this forum for students and led by students. In our town hall even for higher education last week, the board heard your need for community, especially during these difficult times. We are proud to announce that we are beginning the creation of a full interest section for international and transnational undergraduate and graduate students! In the meantime, you have the opportunity build community here in this forum. I'm also excited to introduce the appointed leader of this forum, Ethan Trinh, GATESOL's trused advisor to the president on student affairs. Thank you for taking on this new role, Ethan.

You do not need to be a member to participate in this conversation. All are welcome! 

With gratitude,

Jennifer D. Pendergrass, Ed.D.

GATESOL President 2021
