World on Wednesdays is seeking presenters for the fall 2015 semester. WOW is a great opportunity for students, faculty, staff and community members from diverse backgrounds who have an expertise in international topics to share their knowledge with the Vanderbilt community.
WOW is sponsored by International Student and Scholar Services, which strives to facilitate and promote international awareness throughout the Vanderbilt community via campus-wide events. WOW seeks to provide an educational program that expands perceptions and prepares us to become more diverse in perspective and more globally inclusive.
Past WOW sessions have included faculty and student presentations, research findings, study abroad experiences, guest speakers on topical issues and special cultural celebrations.
If your department or organization or any individual would like to present at World on Wednesdays, please complete the online application.
You will be contacted to discuss your interest in the program. Space is limited, and presentation topics will be selected to fit program goals.
WOW will meet seven times during fall 2015 from 12:10 to 1 p.m. each session. Meetings will be held either at the Student Life Center or Sarratt Student Center.
