OUR COMMITTEES

At ISC we have several committees that all work together to provide the greatest benefit to our fellow International Student Organizations, as well as the Penn State international student community!

 

Public Relations Committee

Our in-house Public Relations team is a fully-functioning committee that addresses the imaging and awareness of the ISC. Committee members and volunteers work around the clock to ensure that the ISC is recognized by the student body and imposes the chance for ISC to distribute its core values through different events implemented by other commitees.

Programming Committee

The main task of Programming Committee is to organize various cultural events for different international organizations and students throughout the year. Our major events include Homecoming Parade, International Soccer Tournaments, World Cultural Festival. The goal of those events is to provide opportunities for organizations to collaborate with each other, and to promote different cultures. Committee members come from different countries, pursuing different majors, but are all passionate in organizing events.

 

Liaison Committee

The main task of the liaison committee is to reach out to other organizations and international students and get them involved with ISC. We keep everyone in the community up to date with what ISC has in store for the future, as well as any information that they may be searching for.

Finance Committee

The main responsibility of the Finance Committee is recording our financial transactions, applying for external funding if necessary, reimbursement, and maintaining a healthy financial status for ISC.

Our Mission

The International Student Council (ISC) is the governing council that represents all international organizations on campus. It addresses international student issues and concerns with the university by representing Penn State’s international body.
