The Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy will sponsor a roundtable discussion focusing on “International Approaches to Education” at 11:45 a.m. Friday, Feb. 13 in the Miley Hall executive dining room.

Education is a crucial aspect of a nation’s identity and development. However, not all educational systems are the same.

The discussion will be led by Romina Fetta and Christelle Miskizak, Salve Regina’s 2014-2015 Fulbright foreign language teaching assistants. Both teach in the Department of Modern and Classical Languages and live in the University’s language house located at Carnlough Cottage. Fetta and Miskizak will present their countries’ approaches to education, with an emphasis on higher education, and facilitate a discussion.

Roundtable discussions are open to Salve Regina students, faculty and staff, and lunch is provided. As space is extremely limited, those interested in attending should RSVP to pellcenter@salve.edu.
