The International Student Cultural Organization at Troy University has successfully brought together students from different cultural backgrounds by selling all 250 tickets to the annual ISCO festival.
The purpose of the festival is to bring people from different places together to experience culture as authentically as possible without leaving Troy, Alabama.
“ISCO brings the community…out of this world,” said Brianna Moore, a junior English education major who is also an active ISCO member. “Building these relationships…helps bring about world peace,”
Students and staff come together to share food, music and conversation for an evening of fun.
“After I (come) here … I (made) friends — it was like a miracle for me,” said Chloe Zhang, a computer science major from China.
Many organizations and individuals shared the performance.
