The Global Village (GV) is a community space for students to gather, create new friendships, study, and gain access to resources. Within the GV, students are presented with opportunities to learn about various aspects of nationality and citizenship as parts of one’s identity, and how those intersect with other identities that the students carry.
The GV provides students with access to a resource library collection, with games
and book and movie titles related to English as a Second Language, travel, cultural
exploration and adaptation, as well graduate exam preparation textbooks; a computer
lab; professional and student staff, and informational pamphlets and bulletin boards
covering topics of importance to the international community. In addition to these
services, the GV also hosts weekly and monthly programming, including Workshops, Discussions,
and more.
