The Ways of the World: Exploring Multiculturalism at JMU, Course #TD1168

In this six session series, we will explore a few of the many countries represented at JMU. Twice a month, for three months, we will meet to learn about the history, customs and culture, communication styles, common business practices, personal space/intimacy zone issues and how predominant religions can affect the work place for a particular country or group of countries. Participants will also learn practical tips for interacting with JMU community members from other countries.

Join us as we explore the ways of the world…
