鈥淭he fateful day when my dreams of going abroad for a semester became reality, helped set me on a path to where I am today: swimming with whale sharks and enjoying life by the Red Sea. Although my love for sharks and whale sharks runs deep, I also assist colleagues in other areas of marine research.鈥

Agreements
The 吃瓜爆料 has made a strategic decision to develop a global outreach beyond routine faculty-led travel courses or using the services of third-party providers. We don't hold empty agreements with other universities or institutions; the agreements we have signed in Spain and Morocco involve real partnerships, such as investing in outfitting new labs, developing exchange programs in health care professions, and sharing resources and faculty.
Lecture Series
The Center for Global Humanities at the 吃瓜爆料 is dedicated to exploring the human condition in the 21st century. Lectures are held on 吃瓜爆料's Portland Campus for the Health Sciences and are streamed live on the internet. All events are free and open to the public.
