Description
The number of nontraditional students
on study abroad (students of color, ethnic
minorities, older returning students, etc.)
remains small. In a video format, nontraditional
students speak in "before" and "after"
interviews about their experiences. A panel will
discuss successful models to encourage these
students and strategies to open the possibility
of participation in longer programs. Thread 2
