Intros and discussions can be inspiring – sometimes, the ideas that spawn are the beginning & end of the connection. But already the value of this program has far exceeded just inspiration. Agreements are initiated, and plans are underway for upcoming visits and longer-term joint programs. #TIEC40

Deneyse’s Texas tour continues! This week she’s in Houston, a hub for many of our outstanding Texas member HEIs. Yesterday, Provost Diane Chase and Ambassador (ret’d) Michael Pelletier were so generous with their time to share @uh.edu's vision and priorities for global engagement. #TIEC40 #GoCoogs
