code format="owner" The World Affairs Club is designed to make students more active learners and give them the tools to become truly engaged citizens in the various communities (local, national, global) they will enter after graduation. Our primary objective is to create students who come to understand, value, and accept their responsibility to become active citizens in their community, sensitive to cultural diversity, so that they may assume active leadership roles and help others do the same. In order to meet this objective, students will integrate service learning, community leadership, intercultural/international studies, and travel study. Members of the World Affairs Club will accomplish this objective through participation in the following programs: the Catholic League’s Model United Nations competitions; the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia’s Student Steering Committee, the International Court of Justice, the Model United Nations Simulation, the Student Voices program; the UNA-USA Model United Nations competition; the Cultural Diversity Club’s International Night; and lecture programs offered by the World Affairs Council, the Foreign Policy Research Institute, and local colleges and universities.
