A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:
The 2010-2011 academic year was designated the Year of Global Citizenship at Furman. The concept for this themed year was brought to the university by a group of committed students, forming the Year of Global Citizenship (YGC) forum which became the Global Issues Forum (GIF) in the next academic year. The year's theme of global citizenship focused on social, economic, and environmental aspects of that citizenship. The YGC forum, assisted by other student groups, sponsored many speaker and film series focused around the question, “what does it mean to be a citizen in a globalized world?”
