About the Center
The Center for Intercultural Caring works to transform the College into a “community of caring”. Our aspiration is to build a community that enables every student and faculty member to preserve their personal, cultural, and national uniqueness, while also looking beyond the lens of suspicion, hostility, and dispute to see the “other” and unite around common goals. Activities are concurrently conducted to train students to become educators within caring communities.
