Ƶ College Announces Schedule for “Terrorism and Global Justice” Course
Dr. Spurlock recently said of the course: "The events of September 11, like no other events in recent memory, have concentrated the attention of Americans on the world beyond our borders and outside the well-known boundaries of western culture. Although a college course cannot solve the problem of world conflicts and terrorism, it can explore the sources of these conflicts, place them in context and consider possible solutions."
