All IELI classrooms are in Kendall Hall.
It is one of the
oldest buildings on the UNT campus.
Kendall Hall was originally a
dormitory, and was converted into offices for International Studies and
Programs and classrooms and computer lab for the IELI. The room size is
perfect
for a small class of about 12 students. |

Pretend
you are a new IELI student.
It is your first week at IELI at UNT in Denton, Texas.
You are ready to learn English! Let's
go inside... |
|
First, you see the International
Welcome Center. It is a big, open room with large windows and
comfortable seats for visiting with other students. The director, Olga
Grieco, usually has a pot of tea ready for students who come in. |
 |
Let's go upstairs to the 2nd floor, room 234.
IELI students come here to
talk to Dale Hamilton, the IELI counselor. He helps students who have
questions about housing, landlords, car insurance, roommate problems and
generally about living in Denton. Dale plans IELI orientations, social excursions, special events, talent
shows, and parties for IELI students. |
|
The main IELI office is across the hall from Dale's office.
You will go to this floor when you register as a new student.
After classes begin, you will see many students hurrying in this hall. It is
important to get to class on time!
You are now experiencing many new
things. The IELI welcomes you and will help you feel comfortable in your new home.

Have
you ever eaten pizza? Many students eat pizza because it is easy to get and it's
delicious. Many pizza restaurants in Denton deliver pizza to the UNT residence halls. You
can taste many varieties of pizza at the IELI Welcome Party. |

Longhorn & horse photos
by Tamara Taylor |
You may see a large herd of longhorn cattle
grazing in a grassy field near UNT. If you travel in the country outside of Denton, you
may see many horses on large ranches. |
