Dr. Phyllis West Global Service Learning Award
Your contribution to the Dr. Phyllis West Global Service Learning Award opens up new worlds for students who have previously not been able to explore other cultures and areas of the globe. Previous service learning trips to Ghana and Nicaragua enabled our students to meet people and experience cultures from far away places they would not regularly have access to.
The Dr. Phyllis West Global Service Learning Award supports first-generation college students who are interested in attending the Public Health Brigade to Ghana or Panama for the purpose of allowing participation in a high-impact practice, development of leadership skills, enhancement of social responsibility, improvement of writing skills and identification of the path towards career development. The Global Service Learning Scholar is an ambassador for GSU and the USA.
Previous Dr. Phyllis West Global Service Learning Scholars:
Scholars Andres Cornejo (Accounting) and Janai Hicks (Social Work) participated in the Public Health Brigade to Ghana from May 17-29, 2022. This experience has expanded their knowledge of the world and broadened their perspectives and interests.
