Note from the editor

THE GLOCAL is the place for local and global stories by students at Florida Atlantic University. With the help of extra sunshine, fresh ocean air and juicy politics, we grow great journalists! We’re situated at the gateway between the United States and Latin America, in places where the Global North meets the Global South. Our student writers are based in Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade Counties, and have quick access to some of the most important issues affecting America, from gun control to immigration. Our writers look for local angles on global issues, cover communities, and serve up news and perspectives of interest to many. Follow us and share our stories!
