CHAPEL HILL�A trio of Pitt Community College health sciences instructors attended the fourth annual World View Community College Symposium on �Globalization and Global Health Issues� on Nov. 12-13. Kay Gooding, Marsha Hemby and Ruggie McKenzie were among the nearly 100 community college educators who traveled to UNC-Chapel for the day-and-a-half program and gained a greater understanding of global education and its relevance to the classroom. In addition to the symposium�s featured presentations by global health experts and practitioners, participants took part in small group sessions on global health issues and resources. World View, which begins its eleventh year as a UNC-Chapel Hill public service program, helps educators better prepare their students for the small and interconnected world in which they live. It does so by producing symposiums, seminars, global education leadership programs, workshops and international study visits. Gooding, Hemby and McKenzie, join a growing number of World View program graduates who will now take on the responsibility of increasing global perspectives in the classroom. World View�s next programs are back-to-back seminars on �Latin America and North Carolina� and �The Middle East� March 24-26 on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus.
