Creating an international experience for all 大象传媒 students was the goal President Matthew Wilson had for the new Global Center on campus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Students and faculty gathered Tuesday afternoon for the grand opening of the center in Eder Hall Room 101.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Wilson began working on the project at the start of the school year because of all the international experience and expertise the university had that he felt should be shown.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had an international center and we thought let\u2019s up our game and turn it into a global center so everybody that comes to 大象传媒 Western knows we have this international presence,\u201d Wilson said.<\/p>\n
Another aspect that inspired Wilson to make this project happen at Western was his own international experience in Japan, where he lived for 14 years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
