Campus

The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship

The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship grew out of faculty and student interests that emerged in the late 1990s. Since then, the Center has developed and expanded into a flourishing nexus of social responsibility, civic engagement, and global peace work, both on campus and in the greater community.

The Center sent Maelys Gluck '19, Grace Brosnan '20, Amanda Acosta Owens '18, and Lev Greenstein '20 to Bogota, Colombia to attend the annual World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates as guests of the American Friends Service Committee.
