"I've had so many great opportunities in College Nine. I studied two languages, worked in our International Living Center, built a home in Mexico, and studied in Brazil. These experiences have helped me become a global citizen and prepared me for an increasingly globalized world."
-Aileen Joy, Class of '09

GLOBAL ACTION (CLNI 85)

In this workshop facilitated by peer instructors, students will learn about current international and global issues through interactive exercises, small group discussions and faculty presentations. Students will develop an "action plan" to raise awareness about one or more of these concerns and take practical steps to create positive change in the world.

Take it in addition to your regular course load. It is designed to be fun, informative, empowering, and a very light work load!
