October Events

We hope that everyone enjoyed their fall break! Many of our own International club members went on a hiking and rafting trip in North Carolina. They spent four days in Bryson City, North Carolina near the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. This is the third year that the International club has visited Falling Waters Resort  and Wildwater Ltd. Rafting on October 9th thru the12th. 





Thirty-two International club members hiked the Bartram Trail, rafted on the Nantahala River, and spent some quality time in front of the campfire. Many of the students expressed their thoughts about the rafting trip, for example an international student from Free University of Bozen - Bolzano, "The trip was crazy, in an awesome way!" said Corneliu Ilisescu. International club looks forward to next year's fall break trip with new faces and new memories.


As Halloween approaches, International club has organized a private tour of the Haunted Jail House with Bulldog Tours.  A tour guide will take us through the cells of the Old City Jail that held the most feared criminals of Charleston during the 19th century. It is a forty-five minute tour and it begins at 8:30p.m. on Friday, October 29th. Spaces are limited (only 20 spots) and tickets are $16 per person, so if you are interested please contact Michelle Ortega at msortega@edisto.cofc.edu.
