International Fest on Sept. 23 concluded UAMS’ Ninth Annual Diversity Week, which featured a speaker on inclusive leadership. At the Friday festival, UAMS employees and other representatives of China, India and Africa stood behind tables filled with items that were used to help tell visitors about their native homelands. “The festival gives us a wonderful opportunity to share information about our country and its people,” said Sarita Garg, Ph.D., post doctoral fellow in the Department of Neurobiology and Developmental Sciences. “I enjoy telling my colleagues about the cultures of India, and it allows me to learn more about other countries represented at UAMS.” UAMS has almost 9,000 employees who represent more than 70 countries around the world. “As the state’s most diverse workplace it’s only fitting that we set aside time to celebrate that,” said Amanda Saar, chairwoman of the Chancellor’s Diversity Committee and UAMS History of Medicine librarian. About 300 UAMS employees and students visited the festival during the lunchtime event. In addition to ethnic food offered at the various displays, UAMS treated employees at the festival to a hot buffet of food representing several cultures. Mini tacos, beef taquitos, mini cordon bleu, crab nuggets and teriyaki chicken kabobs went fast, but the vegetarian egg rolls were the most popular. “We ordered more vegetarian egg rolls than anything else but they disappeared first,” Saar said. “Combined with the food at the booths, I think you could have made a very nice lunch here.” Annie Lincoln with the UAMS Myeloma Institute for Research and Therapy demonstrated a traditional Philippine dance. This year the festival was held in the concourse of the Education II Building instead of the student union, which has been vacated in anticipation of being demolished early next year. “It’s educational and enjoyable,” said Nancy Dockter, a research assistant in the Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health, who attended International Fest for the first time this year. ”I appreciate everyone who took time to share delicious food and other aspects of their culture.”

International Fest on Sept. 23 concluded UAMS’ Ninth Annual Diversity Week, which featured a speaker on inclusive leadership. At the Friday festival, UAMS employees and other representatives of China, India and Africa stood behind tables filled with items that were used to help tell visitors about their native homelands. “The festival gives us a wonderful opportunity to share information about our country and its people,” said Sarita Garg, Ph.D., post doctoral fellow in the Department of Neurobiology and Developmental Sciences. “I enjoy telling my colleagues about the cultures of India, and it allows me to learn more about other countries represented at UAMS.” UAMS has almost 9,000 employees who represent more than 70 countries around the world. “As the state’s most diverse workplace it’s only fitting that we set aside time to celebrate that,” said Amanda Saar, chairwoman of the Chancellor’s Diversity Committee and UAMS History of Medicine librarian. About 300 UAMS employees and students visited the festival during the lunchtime event. In addition to ethnic food offered at the various displays, UAMS treated employees at the festival to a hot buffet of food representing several cultures. Mini tacos, beef taquitos, mini cordon bleu, crab nuggets and teriyaki chicken kabobs went fast, but the vegetarian egg rolls were the most popular. “We ordered more vegetarian egg rolls than anything else but they disappeared first,” Saar said. “Combined with the food at the booths, I think you could have made a very nice lunch here.” Annie Lincoln with the UAMS Myeloma Institute for Research and Therapy demonstrated a traditional Philippine dance. This year the festival was held in the concourse of the Education II Building instead of the student union, which has been vacated in anticipation of being demolished early next year. “It’s educational and enjoyable,” said Nancy Dockter, a research assistant in the Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health, who attended International Fest for the first time this year. ”I appreciate everyone who took time to share delicious food and other aspects of their culture.”
