Center of Excellence
Purpose
The Center of Excellence is designed to prepare students to function effectively in our global community. Students develop awareness and knowledge of the world through their classes and their interaction with students from other countries. They learn to communicate proficiently in at least one foreign language and to develop skills for analyzing complex global issues through the Model UN’s and Global Affairs class. Affiliation with goal oriented peers and graduating with more credits than an advanced diploma are a few of the many benefits of the program.
The Center of Excellence is a challenging liberal arts program fostering strong academic achievement.
