solid foundation in the liberal arts, you will develop communication, listening, reading and writing skills, the broad general knowledge and cultural awareness necessary to adapt to any career challenge. Preparing you to learn a living, however, is only part of the sis mission; we also want to help learn how to live a life. At sis, you will find a nurturing community in the Cambodian traditions. Based on that tradition, the hallmarks of a sis education are a deepening cultural sensitivity and awareness to one's community. As a sis graduate, you will possess the hallmarks of a well-rounded educated person (the ability to think critically and to communicate clearly). It is how sis strives to “change the world one student at a time.” You'll also have a lot of fun as you experience the joys of school life, including developing life-long friendships with faculty members, coordinators, school staff members and fellow students. In fact, there is a very good chance one of those people will become the best friend you ever met!

You've made a wise choice! Welcome to the sis community. I look forward to meeting you and sharing with you your experience of sis.
