PROGRAMS 2010/11 Programs and Events at the I-Center Regular meetings were held by a Program Committee. The purposes of the committee were: • • • • • • To evaluate program proposals from student organizations. To initiate selected programs sponsored by Bechtel: e.g. International Week, Winter Quarter Discussion Series and the Faculty-Graduate Student Lunch Discussion Series. To coordinate outreach and publicity for our programs. In keeping with these goals each quarter we offer some events that are run directly by the I-Center as well as provide some assistance to student groups to offer their own activities. Most of our events are free and open to the public. Following is a summary of the events which the I-Center organized, or provided a venue for, during the 2010/11 year. Many of these events were presented in conjunction with student groups and supported by funding from the Billie Achilles fund and the Riddle Family Foundation. We would like to thank all of these individuals and groups for their support, and hard work. Without them, the I-Center would not have been able to offer such a range of programs and opportunities. Fall Quarter Events We had approximately 3,653 people attend evening and weekend events, and we hosted 391 events total during the quarter. Events listed below were all held at the I-Center.
