Importance of Global Citizenship
In an increasingly interconnected and shrinking world, preparing students to be global citizens is more important than ever. Global citizens are more likely to
Live harmoniously in multicultural communities
Thrive in a changing and increasingly international job market
Create a more equitable and just world
Be able to help solve global issues
More deeply understand the world and themselves
Appreciate the strength of diversity
“It is useful and good for us to learn the differences between Chinese culture and American culture. After the class, I can accept other cultures. BUT! It is the last class, so I feel a little sad.”
