What does it mean to be a global citizen? That lively discussion is at the heart of “Perspectives on Global Citizenship,” Clark College’s celebration of International Education Week 2011. From Nov. 14 to 18, the college will host a wide range of events including panel discussions, films, speakers and music. All events are free and open to the public. A complete list of events is available by clicking here.

International Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education reflects their efforts to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the United States.

The events are being coordinated by the Clark College Office of Student Life and Multicultural Student Affairs and the Clark College Office of International Programs. Additional support has been provided by Clark’s Developmental Education, English, Communications and Humanities Departments, Clark College language instructors, and many of the college’s student clubs.
