An annual parade through the Memorial Union will showcase a group of international students wearing ethnic clothing and carrying flags from their home. The event serves as the official kick-off event for Global Awareness Month at the university. 

The Parade of Nations is scheduled for Thursday, April 2, at 10 a.m., and will start on the main floor of the Memorial Union near the NDSU Bookstore. It will end in the Memorial Union Plains Room with a reception.

The event is free and open to the public.
