Global Conversation Hour, or GCH, is hosted by the Global Education Club on Fridays from 3 to 4 p.m. in the atrium of the Bishop Library.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GCH is coordinated by the club\u2019s supervisor, Terri Rosenberg, assistant professor of English and international student academic advisor. It was previously known as Global Coffee Hour, where coffee and other snacks were distributed but has since been revised to meet the appropriate guidelines during the pandemic. GCH features presentations from various groups on campus, including faculty and students.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first GCH for the semester was on March 5, where Dr. Valbona Hoxha, assistant professor of biology, talked about visiting Turkey. On March 12, this semester\u2019s interns at the Suzanne H. Arnold Art Gallery presented their work for the upcoming exhibition next semester, \u201cA Global Lens.\u201d Their aim was to highlight the four main sections that the exhibition will present: 19th<\/sup> century artifacts, study abroad and service trips, as well as international students.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The GCH on March 19, featured Donna Miller, LVC instruction and reference librarian; she talked about her experience backpacking through Chile and Argentina.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think when you visit another country it changes you,\u201d Miller said. \u201cIt helps you grow; it gives you a better perspective, it broadens your horizon. I think it makes you a stronger person too.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Philip Benesch, associate professor of political science; director of pre-law and external scholarships & fellowships, is scheduled to explain the Fulbright Program on March 26. The last four GCH\u2019s for the semester will be on April 16, 23, 30 and May 7.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested participants can also join GCH via Zoom. For any additional information, contact Dr. Rosenberg at rosenber@lvc.edu.  <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
