It is my pleasure to share with you the 2018 annual report from University of Iowa International Programs. The report offers a glimpse into the many ways in which the UI is internationalizing its campus, interacting globally with collaborative partners, broadening the experiences of students as they study and conduct research abroad, creating new knowledge across borders and oceans, and working in partnership with the larger Iowa community so that we all may become more globally aware citizens.

RE: Call for Nominations: The Lola Lopes Award for Undergraduate Student Advocacy
With the Lola Lopes Award for Undergraduate Student Advocacy, the Office of the Provost each year honors a University of Iowa administrator, staff member, or faculty member (in a non-teaching role) who supports undergraduate education and who serves as a strong, effective advocate for undergraduate students.
Effective immediately, the Graduate College and Departments will begin collaborating with University Human Resources Faculty and Staff Disability Services Office (FSDS) to administer all workplace accommodation needs (including new or ongoing health conditions) for graduate assistants. This change is consistent with the recent change for faculty and staff employees.
The Graduate College is now accepting two-page concept proposals (Phase 1) for Challenge Grants with a January 15, 2019 deadline. The goal of the Challenge Grants is to better prepare our graduate students for the knowledge economy, global challenges, and broader career options.
