International April 14, 2021
Around 30 SUNY Oswego students recently had a unique opportunity to interact with five young professionals from countries not usually on the college visitors list.
This March 31 opportunity came about thanks to the annual Speed Meeting event that SUNY Oswego’s Institute for Global Engagement (IGE) organizes in collaboration with the Humphrey Fellowship Program at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.
A Speed Meeting (similar to speed dating, but for professional purposes) is an opportunity to sit down and have quick chats with lots of people in a short period of time. While the event traditionally takes place in a face-to-face format, this year students, faculty and staff were able to interact via Zoom with five Humphrey Fellows from all over the world: Doreen Bangapi Mwanyama from Tanzania, Jordan Dean from Papua New Guinea, Jovana Bulatovic from Montenegro, Julio Herrera Toledo from Guatemala
