As well as domestic out of state students UA has a fair number of international students who certainly won’t be going home at the weekends. My son has several international friends and they all went out for lunch together last Thanksgiving. He said it was fun to see some of his Chinese friends experience Thanksgiving food.

We’ve found it easier than we thought having him away. We exchange emails and chat together on Skype on Sundays. We’ve even watched a couple of football games “together” with him calling in on Skype which worked out surprisingly well.
