At the School of Global Studies and Languages (GSL), we are thrilled to integrate international studies, area studies, and all our language and literature programs. In doing so, we also unite our diverse alumni from these disciplines. GSL fosters an understanding of global complexities and multilingualism, providing our students with a unique vantage point, the ability to see the world from different perspectives. This preparation enables them to inhabit multiple worlds, build relationships across cultures, and serve as mediators in a divided world. As our students embark on a bold new chapter in our impressive legacy, they gain inspiration from our vast network of alumni across the globe. This page offers a glimpse into that expansive community.
