鈥淚 don鈥檛 know if anyone who was part of the founding of our institution some 117 years ago could have imagined us growing into a university with this kind of global reach,鈥� observed 成人视频 President William Downs. 鈥淔orty-five foreign countries represented in our college town鈥�that is truly astounding! A strong 21st century university will connect local students with the world, and it will attract the rest of the world to its campus. We are achieving both goals right now and with impressive results, and GWU graduates heading into a global economy will be that much better prepared for success because of it.鈥�

成人视频鈥檚 Director of Diversity and Inclusion Lawrence Brinson noted that the presence of international students can create a wealth of authentic opportunities for cultural engagement and enrichment. 鈥淚n today鈥檚 globalized economy, educational and social interaction with students from around the world can provide 成人视频 students with real world academic and career benefits,鈥� Brinson affirmed. 鈥淟iving and learning side-by-side with students from around the world helps all of us learn to avoid stereotyping and form more informed opinions. It gives us a better understanding of international issues and provides new opportunities for unique cross-cultural experiences.鈥�

Coordinator of International Student Services Tina Earls enjoys getting to know the students and helping them adapt to campus life. She also serves as 成人视频’s Principal Designated School Official (PDSO), responsible for managing government compliance of student Visas. 鈥淲hen an international student comes in, we strive to encourage them throughout their education levels and as they become alumni,鈥� she shared. 鈥淭hey are appreciative of all we do, and they are happy here. 成人视频 is not new to the international market nor to the global competition of international recruitment and continues to provide quality academics and social experiences. Most non-athletes choose GWU by word-of-mouth recommendations from a church or missions field or former or current students.鈥�
