Crossing Time Zones: An ISAB Podcast
Crossing Time Zones is a podcast series that amplifies the diverse voices of international students at the University of Maryland. Through in-depth interviews, we showcase their achievements, challenges, and strategies for resilience, providing insights that inspire and support current and prospective international students. By documenting their personal and academic experiences, we promote cross-cultural exchange, diversity, and understanding within the UMD community. Our mission is to bridge gaps between international and domestic students, foster a more inclusive campus environment, and offer a platform for international students to share their stories and engage in thought-provoking conversations.
