Jean Gounard, director of international student affairs, chaired the annual business meeting of the NAFSA Francophone World Special Interest Group at the NAFSA: Association of International Educators meeting in Saint Louis, Missouri, May 28–31, and was subsequently reelected chair of the group. During that meeting, official representatives from various parts of the Francophone world spoke on the status of the French language today. In addition, Gounard co-chaired the session “Helpful Information and Resources to Facilitate Review of the Francophone Africa Credentials.”

These meetings also marked the 12th anniversary of the signature of the Memorandum of Friendship between NAFSA and l’Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie initiated in 2001 by Gounard, already chair of the NAFSA Francophone World Special Interest Group.
