Day of Giving: Edgar Mancia Garcia ’20

For Edgar Mancia Garcia ’20, a Salvadorian Guatemalan student from Durham, North Carolina, coming to a PWI was a big culture shock. Fortunately, Garcia was able to find a community and form meaningful bonds with fellow NC State students, with the help of Multicultural Student Affairs, before his first semester even began.
