Host Lori Thurman (KWC ’94, Title IX & Disability Services Coordinator) interviews international students Kayla Nunes and Sofia Bracho about life as women studying far from home. They discuss cultural differences in gender expectations, campus involvement and favorite KWC memories, observations about gender equity, and advice for female international students. Guests share lessons they’d tell their younger selves (be braver, take risks), personal sources of pride, one small regret, and hopes for post-graduation—pursuing careers/education while giving back. Key takeaways: build support networks, use campus resources (including Title IX), advocate for yourself, and embrace opportunities.
