(SotJP) | 5:30 - 7:30 PM
The Honors Student Organization (HSO) and the Students of the Japanese Program (SotJP)
are teaming up to craft and serve delectable sushi to fellow students.
We believe that food has a remarkable ability to unite people, fostering a sense of
community. Sharing a meal with others imparts the values of generosity, hospitality,
and teamwork. Furthermore, every dish tells a unique story of its origin and the culture
that gives it life.
During International Education Week, which underscores our dedication to inclusivity,
learning, and togetherness, we're thrilled to share a slice of Japan with the UofM
community. Join us in this culinary journey to celebrate diversity and strengthen
our bonds as a community.
