Temple World Tour
Join us for our annual Global Engagement Week: Temple World Tour, a week of globally inspired events from October 31 to November 3.
Let us take you on a World Tour celebrating Temple’s global engagement, culture and diversity.
You might remember this week as #YouAreWelcomeHere Week or Super Mega Global Week, but this year we updated the name to reflect its comprehensiveness. Discover events concentrating on all aspects of globalization from learning about new cultures to exploring study abroad. Global Engagement Week has a new name, but you’ll find the same warm and welcoming experience.
