Description: Now you can experience what hundreds of internationals students across the country have done in learning about the issues of reentry while playing a fun game. "Customs and Culture" is an interactive way of learning what western values Internationals have embraced and how they defend why they should take them back home.

This game is a role-play, designed to be a fun and interactive learning experience. Participants ‘pack’ their bags with their host culture’s values, which they have ranked and chosen according to perceived importance. Upon their arrival back home, they encounter a very strict customs officer who decides if they should be allowed to reenter their home country with this ‘new baggage.’ The game centers on the lively and often revealing exchange between the returnee and the customs officer.

Every short-term mission team should consider playing this revealing role-play game before heading out on your mission.
