Sign Up Today For An Extraordinary Class that Lets You Make a Global Difference!

Have the Opportunity to Invest Thousands of Dollars in a Seminar on International Social Change that Past Students in Similar Classes Called "Awesome" and the “Best Class I've Taken!"

Friends, As someone who has had the pleasure to teach courses on philanthropy in the Honors College for a number of years, I am excited to announce an amazing new spring course focused on global social change.  See all the cool details below.  Best, Prof. Bob Grimm, Honors College Faculty Fellow

Tired of the same old lectures and homework? How would you like to be a part of a course that is making the world a better place? Well, this Spring, you can!

This is no ordinary class, this is an experience!  PUAF 388G Seminar on Global Perspectives on Leading and Investing in Social Change will be offered this spring on Thursdays from 11:00am to 1:30pm. In addition to learning about global social change in a fun and engaging way, you will also have the chance to make a real impact.
How do you tackle the world’s most pressing issues?  From Poverty, climate change, gender equity, human trafficking, refugee and humanitarian emergencies, and public health crises, you will learn how nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and philanthropy are working across borders and in the most desperate circumstances to alleviate suffering and solve problems.  By the end of this class you will be able to create a better world by ACTUALLY investing thousands of dollars in a real nonprofit organization!! What other class gives you the power to MAKE a change in the world?
This course also covers multiple general education requirements and is taught by a professor with an exemplary teaching record so the only thing left for you to do is register for PUAF 388G and begin the class experience this spring.
