Global Course Connections: GLAA Partners
Kenyon is a member of the Global Liberal Arts Alliance (GLAA), an international partnership of colleges and universities where the liberal arts philosophy of education is foundational to the academic program. The GLAA’s mission is to promote partnership and collaboration between leadership, faculty, staff and students to develop a better understanding of the world and pressing issues of our time.
Global Kenyon
Social, political, scientific, cultural and economic issues connect people around the globe. Kenyon provides students with the perspectives and knowledge to be internationally-engaged citizens. From courses to study abroad opportunities, from language acquisition to post-graduate fellowships, Kenyon enables students to integrate global learning into their everyday lives and engage with the global community. Kenyon encourages its faculty to carry out research abroad, collaborate with international scholars, and incorporate global learning into their courses.
HHMI Inclusive Excellence
Kenyon was one of only two liberal arts colleges to receive a 2017 Howard Hughes Medical Institute Inclusive Excellence (HHMI-IE) award. In support of the College’s current strategic plan, the Natural Science Division’s successful proposal focused on initiatives to increase inclusion of all students who study science at Kenyon. HHMI IE award funding concluded in the summer of 2022.
