About New Mind
The characters in New Mind are international students who set out to fulfill the promise of an elite education only to discover that language and cultural barriers prevent them from succeeding academically. Their confidence suffers as they are unable to find solutions and are dismayed by these difficulties. Students can address potential issues before they become emergencies with the assistance of a New Mind advisor. They are empowered to successfully navigate the ups and downs of the cultural and academic adjustment to the American higher education system, gaining independence, and achieving personal objectives, by utilizing a network of campus and community support. It is one thing to value diversity, another to acknowledge it, and yet another to daily immerse yourself in it by overcoming obstacles to integrate.
