Celebration of global cultures: World Fest

Wheaton College - MA, Massachusetts
President: DALE MARSHALL

Every year, Wheaton College holds World Fest, an international awareness celebration featuring the music, food, and artistry of cultures from around the world. Last year the college sponsored Balinese Mask Theatre, Irish-Gaelic Singers and a West African Drumming Group among other performers. The event was open to Wheaton students, faculty, and staff, as well as to members of the outlying community and to high schools from across the area.

Campus Compact's workshops have been extremely valuable. Faculty often become energized by the workshop content and bring that enthusiasm back to campus."
