Teaching and Learning for Global Citizens

International students are a vital community on campus but their narratives and experiences are not always shared. Join us for a panel that brings together International Students from across campus so we can elevate their stories to help us create a more inclusive and global campus environment.

Fearless Fulbrights: Dr. Valerie Orlando

How many faculty do you know who’ve been on not one, not two, but three Fulbrights? For French professor Valerie K. Orlando, the world is her classroom. From the souks of Marrakech to the traboules of Lyon, her time spent in Morocco, Tunisia, and France have been foundational to her work in the humanities—and she’s not done yet. As a humanities scholar with a focus on Africa and the Caribbean, her international experiences are foundational to her explorations of literature, film, and women’s studies in these regions.
