Levermore Global Scholars Program

The Levermore Global Scholars Program (LGS) is a program of distinction that brings together students interested in global studies and civic engagement and committed to improving and understanding the world they live in. This innovative program emphasizes global learning, civic engagement, community service in the local organizations, study and service abroad and scholars’ involvement in designing and leading their own initiatives with a social or global cause. Open to all majors, LGS selects students on the basis of their interest in global learning, study and service abroad, their experience with community work and their leadership potential.
