Cultural Competency Lecture Series: Intercultural Competence

Cecile Despres-Berry, Leah McSorley, and Laura Zuege, will present Intercultural Competence on March 3 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Esch Hurvis Room.

Lawrence is home to over 200 students with global backgrounds, nearly 200 students that have studied in another country and faculty and staff with a wide range of international professional and personal experiences. Because these varied backgrounds, perspectives and experiences make up our community, the skill of global/intercultural competence can help us interact effectively across cultures.

The Cultural Competency Lecture Series at Lawrence features our faculty, students and staff sharing their expertise related to the knowledge and skills necessary to take a culturally competent, equity-minded approach to the work and learning in which they are engaged at Lawrence. Bring your lunch and learn!

Please join us by sending a RSVP to michelle.l.lasecki-jahnke@lawrence.edu by March 2.
