Hesston College’s annual International Festival is an opportunity for international students to share their cultures with the rest of the Hesston College campus. Guests enjoy food from the students’ countries and a program of traditional songs and dances.

The theme for the 2012 festival on March 22 was “A Parade of Nations,” which focused on the flags of the students’ countries and an Olympic athlete from each country in preparation for the summer 2012 Olympics in London.

Hesston College is home to 36 international students from 13 countries during the 2011-12 academic year.
