The Schoolcraft College International Institute (SCII) strives to coordinate cross-cultural learning opportunities for campus and the community by infusing international content into coursework, programs, and other Schoolcraft College activities. The goal is to develop an appreciation of the diversities and commonalities among world cultures, and better understand the global forces shaping our lives.
All are welcome – students, faculty, staff and community members. Learning and understanding is fostered through a variety of avenues, including Focus Series events throughout the academic year; the Multicultural Fair; roundtables; a dedicated publication, International Agenda; and academic endorsement.
“We all should try to listen more than we speak. Everyone can teach us something new if we take the time to listen.”
