This is Cultural Week at Polytechnic, with the theme, "Gather around the fire of culture." One highlight of the week will be the Fulbrighter's booth at International Cuisine Day, where we will be serving "American Cowboy Chili". There will be cultural dances and speeches; food will be served from about 15 cultural groups from Namibia and about 15 other nations. Today we raided the US Embassy's closet to find red-white-and-blue banners for our table.
There are no tests or assignments given this week to allow students to participate in the festival. The other main attraction of the week is the Mr. and Miss Polytechnic contest. The pageant concludes the week on Friday.
I thought you would like to see the contestants' photo as it was distributed to lecturers today, so that you can get in the queue to cast your vote!
