Faileigh Dickinson University Global Issues Gateway

Fairleigh Dickinson University’s new Global Issues Gateway Web site (http://www.gig.org), is a portal to news and views from throughout the world. This impressive new resource serves students of all ages, teachers and all global citizens. Global Issues Gateway features original content from the FDU community and articles and reports from a wide range of sources, selected by faculty editors. The editors select articles and features relating to their fields and post them, or links to them, on the site, says Jason Scorza, professor of philosophy and political science on the Metropolitan Campus, who is the general editor of Global Issues Gateway. “The goal,” he said, “ is not to be a comprehensive outlet for information and news, but rather a very selective digest that focuses exclusively on issues that truly transcend boundaries and cultures in a meaningful way.” Subsections of the Web site focus on culture, economics, ethics, science and politics.
