The Global Café is an International Center social and educational activity that is co-sponsored by the Office of International Students and Scholars (ISS). During Fall and Spring semesters Fridays from 6:00 to 8:00 pm come and meet old friends or make new ones over coffee, tea, and a light vegetarian meal. Stop by, relax, and enjoy interesting people from the Purdue and greater Lafayette community. Spend a few minutes or two hours; your presence will always be welcome and appreciated. Every meeting an International speaker will give a half-hour informal presentation about their country. FREE!!! Volunteers are needed to host and close Global Cafe!
