This volume of essays offers models for diverse, effective approaches to providing a global learning curriculum and instruction to undergraduates in small institutions. Small colleges face unique challenges when integrating international curricula and global learning, including limitations in staff, financial resources, and administration. However, those challenges can often inspire creative solutions. The collection of essays features small liberal arts colleges and universities across the US where global learning programs are thriving. The essays provide guidelines, important considerations and practical steps to administrators, educators, and staff who are building or revising their global learning programs in higher education institutions.
