THIS SPECIAL SESSION WILL BE HELD IN-PERSON. This month, we will celebrate the final days of Spring 2026 by meeting at ISSO Morningside on the 4th floor of Armstrong Hall for a small end-of-semester party with coffee and breakfast treats. Join your ISSO English Conversation friends to practice your speaking skills in a fun group activity to reflect on the "roses" and "thorns" of the past semester -- and to discuss your upcoming summer plans!
Details and registration will be sent directly to international spouses/ partners who attended at least ONE (1) ISSO English Conversation session between February - April 2026.
**This is the final session of ISSO Spouse/ Partner English Conversation for the Spring 2026 semester. Please bookmark the ISSO English Conversation webpage to stay updated on future programming for Fall 2026!
