Human Rights at IWUHuman rights issues and concerns play a prominent role in the life of the University community in and outside of the classroom. Because engagement in human rights related topics is essential to an understanding of the liberal arts, these initiatives hold especially important significance. At the same time, an understanding of human rights involves making larger connections with external communities, be they defined according to local, national, or global terms. The links at left illustrate how the Illinois Wesleyan community is promoting a greater understanding of human rights issues during the 2012-13 academic year, and how such understanding is related to other ongoing initiatives in Bloomington-Normal, Illinois, the United States, and throughout the world.
