"What Thanksgiving means is very much about family and community, whatever ‘family’ is around you at the time, and that's what we're doing," Dean Marianne Lewis told WLWT.
Students representing 14 different countries gathered last Wednesday for a Thanksgiving dinner with all the staples including stuffing and pumpkin pie. The meal and memories were served thanks to the Lindner Staff Development Committee and volunteers.
“It’s so good, it reminds me of home,” said undergraduate student Son Tran, who moved to Cincinnati from Vietnam.
