Firehawk Forums
Developing a sense of community and broadening cultural perspectives are a major part of the college experience and vital to the concept of a liberal arts education. UT Southern is committed to assisting in this enrichment by providing a variety of opportunities to come together for cultural, spiritual, and intellectual events. To insure that students benefit from these opportunities, the University encourages all students to accumulate a prescribed number of cultural/intellectual/religious enrichment credits, called Firehawk Forums.
Events fall into the following four areas, and students are encouraged to select events from different areas although there is no requirement that every area be included. Firehawk Forums take place across days and times, so students have multiple opportunities each semester to satisfy this requirement.
