Seated in groups of three or four, about 10 Duke community members held sheets in front of them as they phonetically recited words from the pages.

"Nin hao! Jin tian nin yao zhao shen me yi fu ya?" said SangHee Jeong, program coordinator with the International House who is from South Korea and is working to improve her Chinese conversational skills. She was asking a student partner, "Hello! What clothes are you looking for today?"

Dear Students,

We are excited about the upcoming renovations to the Bryan Center. While the work is being done, the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life will be moving to 2022 Campus Drive (formerly the International House) on Monday, November 19th and officially be open for business on Tuesday, November 20th.

In order to prepare for the move the Office will be closed on Friday, November 16th.

We look forward to many visitors in our temporary location and most importantly look forward to moving in to our new home on the lower level of the Bryan Center next to CMA.

Clarybel Peguero
Director, Fraternity & Sorority Life
