Virtual Global Salon Presentation On Serving In The Peace Corps

0

The University of Southern Indiana College of Liberal Arts will host its third virtual Global Salon presentation, “Taking Your Skills and Education Global,” by Andrea Tiller, Field Based Recruiter for the Peace Corps, at 1 p.m. CST Thursday, November 12.

Many people feel inspired to help an overseas community in need, and serving in the Peace Corps is a great way to be immersed in a new culture, learn a new language and have the experience of a lifetime. Join us at this information session to learn about various volunteer experiences and the benefits of serving in the Corps. A question and answer session will follow the presentation.

The Global Salon Series is brought to you by the USI Global Studies program. This series gets its name from the 17th century definition of a “salon,” a gathering where people come together to discuss and share knowledge of the social, cultural, political and philosophical ideas of the time. Founded in 2011, the series focuses on current global issues, providing students and the community a richer understanding of international and global issues, while allowing USI faculty to share their current research. It is comprised of three to four lectures per semester featuring USI faculty and community figures.

For information on how to join this presentation and to see the current lineup of speakers for this semester, visit USI.edu/globalsalon.

These virtual presentations will also be live streamed to the USI College of Liberal Arts Facebook page and recorded. For more information contact Dr. Dan Bauer, Professor of Anthropology, at 812-465-7065 or debauer@usi.edu.
