GI Contacts

We are pleased to introduce to you Global Initiatives! It is our passion to see students reach their potential in a global context. We help international students feel at home. We serve immigrants who seek a better life. We live in an globalized-digital world and it is important to be striving for understanding and peace between peoples, cultures, faiths, and nations. Cross-cultural study, friendship and service are great ways to improve the world we live in. At GI, we are here to help you reach your world!
