Day-long Forum, Thursday, February 23rd Part of the 2012 EPIIC Symposium: Conflict in the 21st Century Institute for Global Leadership Tufts University, Medford, MA
Please join the Institute for Global Leadership for its Synaptic Scholars Senior Presentations on Wednesday, May 2, 2-4pm, Mugar 200
The Synaptic Scholars program is a leadership program, meant to provide a forum for students to take risks, pursue passions, and challenge assumptions in an intimate, supportive and collaborative environment. It is designed to cultivate a strong sense of accountability and responsibility, while encouraging scholars to enrich the University’s intellectual life and programming.
Scholars meet weekly to examine a broad range of current events and global issues, organize community events, offer feedback and support for individual and group projects, and reflect on their evolving intellectual interests and personal goals. By moving beyond traditional departmental methodologies with a singular disciplinary focus, the group creates a framework in which intellectual juxtapositions, critical thinking and self-directed explorations can be realized.
