Since 1996, the Center for the Study of Global Change has hosted the International Studies Summer Institute (ISSI), a two-week residential summer institute for middle and high school teachers. Teachers from around the world join IU professors and other internationally prominent speakers to explore diverse topics such as global environmental change, global food security, international trade, populations at risk, and conflict resolution through simulations, panels, interactive communication technologies, and cultural events. Starting in 2008, the program will include the Lord Timothy Garden Memorial Lecture on Global Change. Teachers receive certification for Professional Growth Points and may elect to earn 1.0 to 3.0 graduate credits through the School of Education at in-state tuition rates. Participants are accepted on a first come, first served basis. Scholarships are available for the first twenty teachers who confirm their participation.

The Lord Timothy Garden Memorial
Lecture on Global Change
Lord Timothy Garden, who passed away in August of 2007, was an internationally renowned expert on international security and a frequent contributor to the International Studies Summer Institute. In honor of his legacy, we are pleased to announce the inauguration of the Lord Timothy Garden Memorial Lecture on Global Change. One of Lord Garden's strengths was his ability to see and articulate the interconnections among issues. |
