On March 4, the four current Corbett scholars<\/a> from Canada visited Western Washington University as part of CANADA WEEK<\/a>. Julia, Amy, Leo and Parsa created and presented an engaging talk about their experiences as exchange students in the United States so far, and shared how their sense of Canadian identity has evolved. They explored how ideas of multiculturalism and national identity differ between the two countries, and shared some of their own histories as immigrants. The students also gave an overview of what might make Canada an exciting location for American students looking for international experience.<\/p>\n
