POLITICS CLASS: GLOBAL CITIZEN OR NEXT-DOOR NEIGHBOR? “MTSU on the Record” Explains “Citizenship and Community in a Globalized World”

(MURFREESBORO) - What does it mean to be a citizen and a member of your community in an age when a global outlook is becoming increasingly important? That is the focus of Dr. John Maynor’s summer Senior Seminar class, which is slated to run from June 1 to July 2. Maynor will explain the class at 7 a.m. this Sunday, May 31, on “MTSU on the Record” with host Gina Logue on WMOT-FM (89.5 and wmot.org).
Designed as a capstone for the political science major, the course will allow students to utilize nontraditional classroom methods such as team-building exercises at the Campus Recreation Center and group projects.
