The mission of Passport UCO is to inspire unity and understanding  in the global community, while providing education and entertaining cultural events for students and the surrounding community. Every fall semester, the Passport program selects a country or region to investigate. In 2008, the compass points to China.
Students who participate in the program will accumulate stamps in their personal passports at each event, and upon collecting 10 or more stamps, they are eligible to enter a drawing for three credit hours of free tuition.
Passports are now available in the Centre for Global Competency, room 137 in the Nigh University Center. You may also pick up a passport at any of the Passport events.
