Society for Ethics, Peace, and Global Affairs

Society for Ethics, Peace, and Global Affairs (SEPGA) serves the academic and social needs of students in the Ethics, Peace, and Global Affairs Program, as well as other interested students. Because EPGA students complete their academic requirements in both the School of International Service (SIS) and the Philosophy/Religion Department in the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), SEPGA is an organization that facilitates community building across the schools. Additionally, SEPGA’s events often attract other students who have an interest in human rights and other ethical concerns on the international stage.

SEPGA’s recent endeavors have included:

  • practice and research trainings
  • coffee hour with professors
  • community building in the EPGA program
