International Connections
The Â鶹ӰÊÓ Center for Languages and International Collaboration, or CLIC, promotes the development of global-ready Â鶹ӰÊÓs who can communicate effectively across differences. More than ever, college Â鶹ӰÊÓs must be ready to work and live in a global environment — not only to speak with their global neighbors, but to communicate with them effectively. Language education is about more than memorizing vocabulary — it’s about embracing diversity and difference. Through the CLIC, Pacific students engage with people around the world.
