HERD NEWS IN BRIEF
COEHS and CIP
announce symposium
HUNTINGTON – The Col-
lege of Education and Human
Services (COEHS) and the
Center for International Pro-
grams (CIP) have announced
Marshall University’s Com-
parative Education Sympo-
sium and Awards Ceremony
on April 23 at 5:30 p.m. in
room 402 of the Drinko
Library on the Huntington
campus.
This event, the first of its
kind at Marshall, will feature
visiting professor Dr. Chris-
tine Soulas from University of
Rennes 2 in western France,
who will discuss the differ-
ences in higher education
between France and the Unit-
ed States. Other presenters,
graduate students enrolled
in a graduate-level course in
comparative education, will
look at different aspects of
education around the world,
including student access to
education and school account-
ability, according to a release
from Marshall University
Communications.
“We live in an increas-
ingly flat world,” said Dr. Clark
Egnor, executive director of
the Center for International
Programs, who is co-teaching
the Comparative Education
course with Soulas, said in the
release. “Our students are no
longer expected to learn to live
in just their own society, but
how to adapt to a variety of
cultures around the world. An
important way to help under-
stand why people in one coun-
try develop in a certain way
is to look at how they educate
their society.
“As educators, we can learn a
lot about how our own system
works by looking at other sys-
tems,” Egnor said. “By taking a
good look at how effectively or
ineffectively goals are reached
in different educational sys-
tems, we can find new ways
of helping our own students
learn.”
For more information about
the class, contact Elizabeth
Lee, public relations assistant,

tington campus, according to a
release from Marshall Univer-
sity Communications.
Bayard de Volo’s lecture,

Beyond.”

rently is researching women
mobilized in support of and
against war in Colombia,

Dr. Christopher White, MU
assistant professor of Latin
American History, stated in
the release, “Dr. Bayard de
Volo’s in-depth analysis of
militarism in Nicaragua, Cuba,
Mexico, Colombia and the
United States leaves no room
for debate about the central
role gender plays in mobilizing
nations for war.”
The lecture is made possible
by the Schmidlapp Distinguished
Lectureship in Women’s Studies
sponsored by the Charlotte R.
Schmidlapp Fund, Fifth Third
Bank, Trustee, and the Organiza-
