As part of International Education Week, SDSU students shared their food and customs at the 66th annual International Peace Village event.

SDSU welcomed students from 106 nations to campus this fall. In mid-November, International Education Week celebrated the diversity that international students bring to campuses across the country. An initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education, International Education Week underscores the importance of preparing students for a globalized world and attracting future international leaders.

The highlight of International Education Week for SDSU was the 66th International Peace Village at the Conrad Prebys Aztec Student Union courtyard. Held on Nov. 16, the event allowed students to show off their cultures, food, music, and folklore. Below are some images from the event from SDSU Staff Photographer Rachel Crawford.
