Faculty Committee on Internationalization
The Faculty Committee on Internationalization (FCI) is an ad hoc committee of the Faculty Senate that works to promote the goals of internationalizing the St. Mary's experience. The FCI is made up of five faculty members, selected by the Faculty Senate for three-year terms, and the director of International Education (ex officio).
The FCI promotes internationalization efforts through its own set of duties and responsibilities and its contributions to the International Management Team. The FCI's duties are:
- Serve as the liaison to the full Faculty, the Faculty Senate, the Provost, the International Education Management Team, and other relevant committees or organizations related to the mission of comprehensive internationalization at SMCM.
- Review and make recommendations on proposals from faculty for
- new study tours and semester abroad programs,
- exploratory and maintenance trips for such activities; and
- academic and programmatic initiatives to further the goal of internationalization.
- Award SMCM scholarships for study abroad.
Members during the academic year 2008-2009 are:
- Michael Taber, chair
- Leslie Bayers
- Holly Blumner
- Adriana Brodsky

- LaRita Hagar (ex officio)
Those who are interested in serving on the FCI would contact the president of the Faculty Senate to express their interest.
The FCI will also use this site to share information with the campus community, so check back regularly.
