In spring 2025, students in Barry Driscoll’s Political Economy of Developing Countries course traveled to Ghana to study the economics of cocoa farming.

Thirteen Grinnell faculty and staff members recently participated in a five-day workshop in Chiapas, Mexico. The trip was part of the College’s ongoing effort to deepen and expand offerings in course-embedded travel and the Global Learning Program for courses across all disciplines.

Global envoys are poised to help fellow students connect to educational global opportunities, no matter their interests and backgrounds.

With her Mentored Advanced Project adviser, Professor of Russian Todd Armstrong, Nora Leahy is exploring how Grinnellians can use the Global Kitchen for coursework and other community-building activities, not only on campus, but also throughout the town of Grinnell.
