Culture Quest is an initiative at The University of Akron to build a student's intellect by crossing borders, literally. For Culture Quest, UA's faculty develop a series of events for students to gain problem-solving skills in real life experiences each semester. The events are chosen to incorporate a wide discipline with the intent to get students out of the familiar and into the unknown through lectures, activities, and even studying abroad. The fall semester's events covered topics such as ethnic representations in the ROTC, biomimicry, economics, and politics. Learn more about Culture Quest at www.uakron.edu/cq.
