| Body |  We are thrilled to welcome several student groups to Eugene this summer and fall. We first welcome Kobe students who will be doing a two-week astronomy program. This is our second year with Kobe, and we partner with the Astronomy department on campus. Students will be spending the first week learning about astronomy and language and visiting CAMCOR, the Eugene science museum. For the second week, students will be able to visit the Pine Mountain Observatory and use the telescopes to do night sky viewing. Seventeen students from Tamagawa Gakuen in Japan and one Korean studentss will be attending the Oregon Experience Program (https://oep.uoregon.edu/) prior to fall term. At the same time, we will be welcome our new cohort of student interns for the Oregon International Internship Program (OIIP). Ten student interns from China and Taiwan will be starting their education practicum journey in local K-5 classrooms for five months. We are glad to see local teachers being very supportive to the program and to the students. “Students are excited to come to the States, and CASLS is very happy to welcome them and provide them all the supports they need,” says Li-Hsien Yang, East Asia Program Director.
