The graphic interpretation of the ,,love” symbol revealed that in any newly formed group, some representations of this symbol are similar, others are different. Interpretation depends on the lenses through which we each see love, manifest it around and feel it within. This proves that even though we are different, we can connect, communicate, collaborate or integrate in various activities, projects.
At the end of the UPT-FIH Campus Explorer event, students were congratulated and asked to express their views on the experience.
