BU International Student Celebrate Non-Traditional Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, but not all BU students are giving thanks in the same way. With an international percentage at 22.9, BU holds the 12^th largest international student population in the U.S. And believe it or not, Thanksgiving is not a thing abroad.

We found that although many international students are too far from home to celebrate with family, they keep the tradition alive by spending time with friends and enjoying a large meal together.

Abroad or domestic, you do not need to eat turkey and stuffing to feel grateful this holiday; harmony, peace, and the feeling of gratitude are the underlying themes of celebration all over during this time.

Listen in as Lauren Popovich and Samantha Nicles talk to BU Students about their Thanksgiving plans.
