The Office of English Language Acquisition (OELA), in collaboration with GlobalMindED hosted this first in a two-part webinar series to inspire linguistically and culturally diverse students to cherish, nurture, and revere their primary culture, heritage, and language so they can realize the short- and long-term personal, educational, and professional benefits of being multilingual. The first webinar – "Retention of Heritage Culture and Language(s)," was a discussion of the cognitive, economic, educational, and sociocultural benefits of multilingualism with expert panelists from a variety of fields and professions.
