Two institutions have announced new programs and distinctions that recognize students for academic and extracurricular activities that go beyond the bounds of the classroom. At Western University, graduate students can now earn the Global & Intercultural Engagement Honour—a special distinction that appears on their transcript—by participating in courses, initiatives, and extracurricular activities that develop global and intercultural skills. United College at the University of Waterloo has announced a new minor in social innovation and impact that will formally recognize students for researching, designing, launching, and testing social innovations.
