LWC seeks host families for international students By Nathan Schweikhart It is no secret that Lindsey Wilson College has been growing at a rapid pace. In the Fall of 2022, Lindsey Wilson College surpassed 3,000 enrolled students for the first time in their history. This exciting growth has impacted one program in particular, the International Students Program. More than ever, international students are flocking to Lindsey Wilson seeking excellent academic programs, competitive athletic teams, and to interact with the Columbia community. This is why the International Students Program is asking for families or individuals in Columbia, or surrounding communities, to consider signing up to become a "host family" for an international student. Host families are an essential source of support for international students. It entails having a student over for meals, supporting students participating in athletics, celebrating holidays with them etc. Host families do NOT provide housing for the international students. This is a valuable opportunity for yourself and/or your family to experience cultures from around the globe, while simultaneously exposing students to American culture. One of the most important goals of the International Students Programs is to make Columbia a second home for our students. As the new Assistant Director of International Students Programs, I have experienced the hospitality and warmth of Columbia firsthand. I relocated from Louisville to Central Kentucky a few months ago and immediately recognized how special Columbia is. I hope you can give our international students this same experience. To sign up to become a host family, the following link will bring you to a questionnaire that helps us assign you a student that best matches your situation: https://forms.gle/YzDvwXaNiBjX15mTA. You can also contact ISP at isp@lindsey.edu or call 270-384-8163. New applicants will be offered an orientation session with LWC staff and seasoned host families to help you ease into the process.
