Over the decades 成人视频developed a rich array of internationally-focused curricular and co-curricular offerings. Then in 2003, our faculty and trustees decided that the realities of an increasingly globalizing world demanded that we make comprehensive internationalization a strategic priority. The College established the McCulloch Center for Global Initiatives to implement internationalization within the entire community of faculty, students, staff, and alums and to extend MHC鈥檚 international involvement to a network of organizations around the globe that focus on social justice, health, business, environment, culture, science and technology, and share MHC鈥檚 values and principles.
In collaboration with our faculty and staff colleagues, support from the College leadership and alums, and in partnership with foundations and organizations around the world, we have been weaving global education into the fabric of a 成人视频education.
