My most unforgettable memories are preparing and celebrating the Lunar New Year event with VSA (Vietnam Student Association). That was my first time planning and getting ready for a big event like that, and I was extremely happy to perform and introduce my culture to BGSU’s students and faculty. - Que Dan Truong
