Conversational Connections
Conversational Connections is a collaborative program between Writing & Language Support (Student Affairs), and Programs for 50+ and Community Engagement (The G. Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education).

This program matches international, exchange, and first-generation students with older adult volunteers (aged 60+) who serve as motivators and English language resources. This program gives students an opportunity to practice their English language speaking skills 1-on-1 in a relaxed, informal conversational situation.
