Mid-Century Report: November 1, 2050
Century College will observe “Wisconsin Awareness Month” in November, the college’s office of foreign, alien, and unidentifiable students announced.
In recent years, the number of students coming from Wisconsin has increased, leading the college to feel a need to better educate its employees and students of how to make these foreigners feel welcome.
Events for the month include an authentic Wisconsin meal (students $20, employees $50) featuring “cheese curds” and an interactive event in which Wisconsin immigrants explain the rich cultural significance of the colors green and gold.
“We realize that it can be difficult for people who come from such different cultures, so we want to make them feel welcome,” a college spokesperson said. “To all the Wisconsinians, we say, welcome to America!”
