How to Be an Insurance Advocate for Your Students
International student advisors are natural advocates, but they don’t always have all the right tools and knowledge when it comes to advocating for insurance-related issues. This session will cover some basic insurance terms and concepts while focusing on real stories and steps of advocacy from ISS offices. We hope you’ll join us to learn how you can better serve your students when it comes to insurance. |

Guiding our international students through homesickness |
As we head into the holiday season, international students might struggle to be away from home, family, pets and friends. During this vulnerable time, it’s important to look out for warning signs such as depression, binge drinking, stress and other harmful behaviors.
To explore this topic further, read one of our most popular blogs that talks about how to deal with homesickness. |
