All are cordially invited to attend a celebration of the international service-learning course “International Perspectives: Xicotepec 2023” on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, from 6 to 7 p.m. in Callaghan Auditorium (Room N110) in the College of Public Health Building. A reception will follow.

Sixteen University of Iowa students who traveled to Xicotepec, Puebla, Mexico, over spring break will give a public presentation on their classroom and service experience, how it has changed them, and what meaning it may have for them in the future as they leave the university to begin their careers.

The service-learning course is conducted in close collaboration with Rotary International District 6000 of Iowa and the Rotary Club of Xicotepec de Juárez, Puebla, Mexico, which are in the twentieth year of their collaborative project. The course faculty included Paul Gilbert, Amy Lesch, Jen Sukalski, Steven Levy, and James Peterson (on behalf of Rotary International).

The presentation is free and open to the public. No RSVP is needed.

Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to attend all University of Iowa-sponsored events. If you are a person with a disability who requires a reasonable accommodation in order to participate in this program, please contact Paul Gilbert in advance at 319-384-1478.
