Unique Centers of Learning

Elizabethtown’s Center for Global Citizenship helps students, faculty and staff develop into global citizens who are informed about the world, have the skills and abilities to cross boundaries, and who work to serve their communities. The Center brings together, under one umbrella, three distinctive facets of the Elizabethtown heritage: a tradition of peacemaking, a commitment to educating for service, and a global outlook on education and citizenship.

The College’s approach to global citizenship is distinctive, owing to our particular mission and heritage. In keeping with the Brethren faith of our founders, Elizabethtown’s mission declares that “the College affirms the values of peace, non-violence, human dignity and social justice and seeks to make those values manifest in the global community,” consistent with our motto to “Educate for Service.”
