Global Fridays started in the fall semester of 2006, serving as a forum for faculty and students interested in all things global. We bring internationally renowned speakers to 蹤獲扞⑹ to talk about their research and we provide 蹤獲扞⑹ faculty with an opportunity to share their research findings.
Meeting six to eight times a semester, Global Fridays are open to all and cover a wide range of topics and disciplines. We meets from noon to 1:30 p.m. Join us for some new perspectives on global processes.
Since September 2024, Global Fridays has been run by a team consisting of:
- Co-Chair, Dr. Gabrielle Daoust, Global and International Studies
- Co-Chair, Dr. Gary Wilson, Political Science
- Dr. Max Hamon, History
- Dr. Luna KC, Global and International Studies
