Welcome to the Finding Your Place podcast - a series about the college experience made by college students for college students. We hope this series becomes a resource for you as you start, and continue, your college journey.

In this supplementary episode, Century College student producer Kaitlyn Gerber weaves together her local community and the global community through the experience of meeting, welcoming and becoming friends with international students on campus. International student listeners may appreciate hearing common struggles on US campuses, while domestic student listeners may find that they want to follow Gerber as a boundary-crossing role model.
