We are one humanity and each deeply different. We may find no better place in which to embrace this paradox than the university. Beginning with your own identity and assumptions, increase your awareness and experience of intercultural learning. Leave with confidence about how your commitment to intercultural understanding will serve as your path to global citizenship.
