A lunch gathering at the Skylight Room in The Commons allowed for deeper discussions with Dr. David Di Maria, Senior International Officer and Associate Vice Provost for International Education, and team members passionate about fostering global education initiatives. We look forward to the exciting possibilities that collaboration holds for both our institutions!
