Description

This book responds to the growing calls to pay closer attention to the qualitative dimensions of international students' experiences at U.S. colleges and universities. Outlining deep approaches to the academic and social integration of international students at U.S. colleges and universities, it describes concrete examples of strategies to enhance the international student experience across a wide range of institutional types, and explores actions that have enabled colleges and universities to create more inclusive, connected, and purposeful campus environments for international students. It fleshes out the effects of these actions through the first person narratives of international students themselves. It focuses on reinforcing an institution's existing strengths and capacities to help academic leaders at these institutions to develop comprehensive strategies that will enable the creation of inclusive campus climates for international students
