On May 2nd, 2011, the Center for Global Humanities hosted a reception at the UNE Art Gallery for seven CGH Scholars who completed two semesters of the Seminar series.  Center Director Anouar Majid introduced the scholars to UNE President Ripich who handed them their certificates of achievement.  CGH instructor George Young talked about the course, while certified CGH Scholars shared their views of the Center’s unconventional course.  Members of the public who support the Center were also in attendance, and they took a few minutes to talk about their experiences and education.  Good food and cheer were in abundance.
