Celebrate International Education

Celebrate International Education! In the midst of classes, work, shuttling the kids, and preparing for the holiday season, consider how you can benefit from an international education experience. Immersing into a foreign culture and practicing skills to negotiate communication, travel, food, and lodging are experiences that build confidence and help one excel in the classroom and beyond. International education opportunities help us recognize the value of these experiences in a shrinking yet massive global world. Learn more about this shared vision of international education between the US Department of State and US Department of Education by clicking this link: http://iew.state.gov/ In addition, ask you faculty members about participating in an international education experience.
