This course will explore how local residents interact and benefit from globalization, immigration, and cultural diversity. Globalization is reshaping how we have traditionally studied our communities. A global perspective is imperative for us and the U.S. population at large as we continue to live and interact in a multicultural world. Further, this will address a variety of issues related to cultural diversity and how people may be affected by the changing immigration landscape. This course is designed to inform and provoke serious thought about the phenomenon of globalization and how it impacts our lives.

The class will meet on Wednesday, March1, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Community Room.  This class will additionally be held on March 8 and 15 at the same time and place.
