Celebrating 25 Years of IMP! This year, the International Mentoring Program (IMP) at Brown University celebrates a remarkable 25 years of supporting international students. From fostering community to building lifelong friendships, IMP has been a cornerstone for many navigating their Brown journey. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this legacy! #BrownIMP #Mentorship #GlobalBrownCenter #25Years #BrownUniversity https://lnkd.in/epct-BC7

As the International Mentoring Program (IMP) marked 25 years of cultivating a home away from home for students from outside the U.S., it also welcomed the University’s largest cohort of international undergraduate students to date. It’s a milestone that IMP founder Maithili Parekh ’02 is especially proud of. “In my sophomore year, we set up IMP with the hope that it would be a safe space where international students could feel a sense of belonging,” said Parekh, who returned to College Hill last month to deliver a keynote address at this year’s International Orientation. “I’m deeply honored to be here 25 years later celebrating what generations of international students have done to contribute to its growth.” #BrownAlumni + Learn more about IMP: https://bit.ly/4d2boE5
