Celebrating global culture

27 SEPTEMBER 2012

A celebration of the diverse cultures that make up Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Wagga Wagga will be held on Friday 28 September. The Global Day activity begins on the sporting field when 100 students and staff from the CSU Study Centres in Melbourne and Sydney take on a team from CSU in Wagga Wagga in friendly cricket and soccer matches. Members of the student social organisation, the International Students Club will also put their cricket skills to the test in a match against University staff. CSU Student Support Officer, Mr Roger Ansell said the day will wrap up with live music and international food at the Crow Bar with students encouraged to wear their national costume. “Charles Sturt University is proud to host students and staff from many different cultures and backgrounds, Mr Ansell said. “The University thrives on this diversity. Global Day is a chance to not only recognise the diversity, it’s a day to celebrate, share and appreciate our differences in music, sport, dance, food and religion while also celebrating our ‘sameness’ in just about everything else.”
