(PICS) USIU Cultural Fest

Culture Week is a yearly celebration held in various institutions around the country to celebrate the diversity in our communities. In the last week of February, in conjunction with Black History Month, USIU honoured its tradition under the theme: ‘Generated Globally, Inspired Locally’.

It was a great celebration of the various cultures represented in USIU’s student body, and all involved from students to teachers to the many Alumni that graced the occasion had a great time. It was an opportunity for the students to show unity inspite of diversity, and sent a positive message throughout the student body in anticipation of the following week’s national election.
