Hosted by COC's International Services & Programs, the forum was designed to help foster strong scholarship among faculty,
form connections with international scholars, encourage dialogue on challenging topics that are timely and international by nature,
and generate interest among faculty, students, and staff for projects and comprehensive internationalization.
