Sixteen Bridges
Sixteen Bridges is a bi-annual
newsletter designed to share information
on international activities across the sixteen
campuses and affiliated international programs
of the University of North Carolina.
The University of North Carolina, in fulfilling
its mission in instruction, research, and service
to the people of North Carolina, recognizes the
importance of common global concerns and acknowledges
the interdependence of nations and peoples throughout
the world. With America's destiny increasingly
being shaped by external forces, the University
believes that international education serves
to advance international understanding, peace,
and security. The University has a responsibility
to provide its students with the knowledge, skills
and experiences to become informed and productive
citizens of the state, the nation, and the world.
In addition, the University must bring the educational,
research and public service resources of the
University to bear in addressing current and
future international challenges, including political,
social, economic and educational issues of importance
to the state, the nation and the world.

Carolina's commitment to internationalization,
