The Franciscan University of Steubenville is embarking on a meaningful partnership with a school in Erbil, Iraq. On Friday, the president of the university and the Archbishop of Erbil signed a memorandum of understanding.
The schools will participate in student exchange programs, develop Arabic and Aramaic languages at Franciscan and fund scholarships for Iraqi students to study at Franciscan -- both online and on campus.
The schools have had a relationship for the past few years and say there are many opportunities for collaboration in the future. Pictured are Franciscan University President Dave Pivonka and Archbishop Bashar Warda, signing the memorandum of understanding.
