Center for International Education Annual Report

2014-2015

Vision/Mission/Goals Vision To create globally competent students who will succeed in working with people of diverse national, ethnic and cultural backgrounds in our internationally interconnected world. Mission Columbus State University strives through its nationally recognized comprehensive internationalization strategy to ensure that all students experience our globally engaged campus and become globally competent professionals. Students must have the knowledge, cultural self-awareness, and adaptability to function effectively in an interconnected world. It is through the study of other cultures and by working, living and studying with diverse peoples and in other cultures that CSU graduates will thrive and contribute to their multicultural and globally connected businesses, governments, civic institutions and non-profits. Program Goals The Center seeks to provide students with international learning and global competencies through the following initiatives:

1) Infusing international perspectives as broadly as possible across the curricula particularly in the International Learning Community (ILC) and International Studies Certificate;

2) Providing a broad range of quality education abroad programs; 3) Promoting and assisting with international development of faculty; 4) Ensuring international students receive vital support and services to succeed and provide a

strategic resource for on-campus internationalization activities; 5) Supporting visiting and exchange scholars who will share their different perspectives and

knowledge with CSU faculty and students; and 6) Stimulating general campus and community awareness of international issues and other

cultures.

Summary The most important success noted in this year’s report is the recognition of CSU’s comprehensive internationalization with the awarding of the Senator Paul Simon Award for Comprehensive Internationalization at Washington D.C. In addition, the number of students and classes in the International Learning Community increased more than twenty percent to record levels. This year CSU also had another record year for study abroad enrollment, the third year of enrollment growth even as total CSU enrollment has been declining slightly. These successes indicate the value and sustainability of our comprehensive internationalization strategy. Columbus State Recognized in D.C. with NAFSA Senator Paul Simon Award for Comprehensive Internationalization In November 2014 Columbus State University received a unique honor when NAFSA, the world’s largest international education organization, presented the university with a Senator Paul Simon Award for Comprehensive Internationalization at a ceremony in Washington D.C. NAFSA bestows this honor

upon universities and colleges which have made great progress toward comprehensive internationalization, “a commitment, confirmed through action, to infuse international and comparative perspectives throughout the teaching, research, and service missions of higher education.” CSU’s comprehensive internationalization strategy is based on integrating international learning in the classroom, through multi-disciplinary and experiential co-curricular programming, and study abroad. In addition, all of the elements are sustained throughout a student’s academic career, particularly when he or she adds the International Studies Certificate to his existing major. The Simon Award is granted to a limited number of institutions each year. This year CSU is one of only four universities to be recognized with North Carolina State University, Rutgers (The State University of New Jersey) and The Ohio State University. A few of the past Simon Award recipients include New York University, Beloit College, Boston University, Purdue University, Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of California at Los Angeles and Duke University. Curriculum and Area Studies International Learning Community: “Food and Hunger” CSU offered the eighth annual International Learning Community (ILC). The ILC Subcommittee, chaired by Ilaria Scaglia, oversaw the program which included thirty faculty, forty-nine classes and approximately one thousand two hundred students from across the colleges of Columbus State University. The number of classes and enrolled students increased more than twenty percent from the previous year.

The ILC links international learning across disciplines and connects the traditional classroom experience with co-curricular dialogues, lectures, films, field trips and other activities. By these means CSU strives to engage students in their academic pursuits through experiential learning. The goal is to provide a global learning experience that links co-curricular learning with classroom instruction and that is itself transnational and cross-cultural.

Highlights of the learning community were the guest lectures, field trips, international films and global dialogues. The International Education Fee provided funding to support the co-curricular programming. During the Global Dialogue sessions, U.S. and international students were able to learn from each other through structured discussions led by international students, particularly International Student Service Scholarship recipients. Among the topics were food, immigration, gender, technology, cross-cultural exchange, popular culture, human rights, religion, and families.

Faculty members organized six field trips to an Atlanta Hindu temple, the Carter Center, the Martin Luther King Center, Jenny Jack Farms and White Oak Ranch.

During the next academic year the learning community theme will be “Identity and Belonging.”

International Studies Certificate The goals in developing the International Studies Certificate (ISC) Program are twofold: 1) to enable CSU students to incorporate international learning into their existing majors, and 2) to integrate study abroad and other experiential international learning into academic courses and programs. The current year was the second year during which students signed up for the ISC Program, coordinated by Becky Becker, Professor of Theatre, who was recently named as Assistant Director of the Center for International Education.

While summer 2014 did not involve any “official” activities for the ISC, Becker participated in two ROAR Visiting Days for incoming students during June and July. Additionally, she made arrangements for several ISC students to meet at the Atlanta airport for a bonding activity. In order to help incoming CSU international students navigate the journey to CSU more easily, ISC students created arrival videos at the airport. Following this, the group visited the Dekalb Farmer’s Market and attended an outdoor event at the High Museum, “Mi Casa, Your Casa,” a kick-off for the interactive installation of the same name.

Fall 2014 marked the second semester during which INTS 2105 Introduction to International Studies and Cross-Cultural Learning was offered in the curriculum. Becker taught the course, which reached its maximum capacity of 20 students, many of whom signed up to pursue the certificate.

As part of the course, students researched and prepared for two events during International Education Week. The first event, the “Hunger Banquet,” was co-sponsored by the International Learning Community as part of the ILC’s “Food and Hunger” theme. Participants in the Hunger Banquet were

assigned membership in a particular socio-economic group and country with corresponding types and levels of food. The participants quickly learned about the degree of hunger or poor nutrition common in many parts of the world, including the U.S. ISC students also presented their research on world hunger and their experience with the “Snap Challenge,” a promotion developed by the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (i.e. “food stamps”), challenging participants to live on the SNAP daily grocery allocation of $4.15 per day.

The second event—also in its second year—was “International Studies Fits You to a ‘T’.” Students in INTS 2105 researched particular coffees and teas from different countries or regions around the world. They presented their research to a large audience while serving them different teas or coffees at stations in the Sara Spencer Event Hall, located in the International House.

In addition to teaching the ISC introductory course, Becker continued to promote the certificate, visiting nearly 20 CSU classes from a variety of departments across campus with the help of Volunteer Student Assistant, Sarah Darville. During Fall 2014 one student graduated having completed the International Studies Certificate: C. Blake Hammond (Theatre).

Spring semester 2015 provided an opportunity for increased focus on curriculum within the International Studies Certificate. With the help of the ISC Steering Committee (John Finley, Mariko Izumi, Stacey Meyers-Prosyniuk, and Ilaria Scaglia), Becker was able to revise the curriculum giving students greater flexibility. The primary revisions which were approved by the university for fall 2015 were the addition of lower level language courses as an alternative to ILC classes and allowing students to add any upper level class with the permission of ISC Coordinator and course instructor if the student attends ILC events and completes an international project related to their major field. Becker continued her efforts to publicize the ISC by presenting to more than 10 classes and at Visitation Days with the assistance of a volunteer student assistant, Sarah Darville. Additionally, Becker updated the ISC brochure, website and student forms to allow greater ease of access for students and faculty. Becker also met with a UITS team to develop an ISC Capstone and Curriculum Plan within ISIS which will greatly facilitate advising and tracking of ISC students. During Spring 2015 three students completed the International Studies Certificate, adding the ISC Certificate to their respective degrees: Katherine Hinzman (History/Art History), Corey Couch (Marketing), and W. Travis Hart (Theatre). By the end of spring 2015, approximately forty students have officially registered to pursue the International Studies Certificate. In addition the “ISC Interest” list includes more than eight hundred students. During summer 2015 Dr. Becker will teach INTS 2105 as part of the new London Internship Study Abroad Program. Eight of the eleven participating students are enrolled in the INTS class. The fall 2015 INTS 2105 class is already full. Based on past interest and her new role as Assistant Director of the Center, Becker will begin offering INTS 2105 every semester to ensure students can complete the certificate in a timely manner. Mildred Miller Fort Foundation Visiting Scholar in European Studies During Fall 2014 CSU hosted Paul Galbraith as the Mildred Miller Fort Foundation Visiting Scholar in European Studies. Galbraith is the 14th Columbus State University Mildred Miller Fort Foundation Visiting Scholar and the first one hosted by the CSU Schwob School of Music. Galbraith is internationally renowned as a brilliant innovator of the classical guitar. By exchanging the traditional guitar for the eight-string Brahms Guitar, which he helped to develop, Galbraith found the ideal instrument with which to interpret the challenging classical transcriptions from his repertoire. He has made a series of critically acclaimed recordings of Bach, Haydn and Brahms, along with his own arrangements of folk tunes from various countries.

During his tenure at CSU Galbraith taught classes on “Musical Interpretations” and “Guitar Transcription.” He also gave a public performance and a Masterclass during October. His classroom students were very impressed with Galbraith’s teaching. As one student remarked afterward,

From the first few moments of the first lecture . . . I knew it was going to be a very different and special experience. . . . A very significant thing about the lessons Professor Galbraith taught us is that he made deliberate efforts to instill in us an inquisitive, exploratory and analytical attitude towards music that lasts much longer than the half-semester he visited CSU. The concepts that I worked on in the lessons with Professor Galbraith . . . are things that I will be making efforts to implement and internalize for the remainder of the time that I have any relationship with music and art, which is a relationship that I hope I am fortunate enough to have for a long time.

In 2000 the late Mrs. Mildred Miller Fort provided generous support to establish an annual Fort Foundation Visiting Scholar in European Studies. Her foundation continues this important work of bringing unique international classes and new perspectives to Columbus State University students. In addition, the Fort Foundation Visiting Scholars bring important research opportunities and collaboration to the faculty.

Elena Diaz-Verson Amos Eminent Scholar in Latin American Studies During Spring 2015 CSU hosted Gerald Greenfield as the 15th Elena Diaz-Verson Amos Eminent Scholar in Latin American Studies. Greenfield holds a PhD from Indiana University and is Professor Emeritus of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. He was recipient of a Fulbright-Hays Senior Lecturer Award to Brazil in 1981. Among Greenfield’s publications are “The Realities of Images. Imperial Brazil and the Great Drought,” Transactions of the American Philosophical Society (2001), Those United States: International Perspectives on American History (2000), Latin American Urbanization: Historical Profiles of Major Cities (1994), and Latin American Labor Organizations (1987). At CSU Greenfield taught “The History of Brazil,” and “U.S.-Latin American Relations.” In addition he gave a public lecture entitled “Pariah to Saint: Cicero, Popular Religiosity and the Catholic Church in Modern Brazil.” Greenfield was warmly welcomed by the Department of History and Geography. He participated in the department’s field trip to Selma, Alabama, and a panel discussion on the Battle of Columbus. Through the Faculty Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning he also gave a presentation on “High Impact Practices for First Year Learning Communities.” The late Mrs. Elena Diaz-Verson Amos provided generous funds establishing the Amos Eminent Scholar Endowment in 1998. For nearly two decades, the fund has supported the annual eminent scholar as well as a variety of Latin American public programs. Broadway Crossing Visiting Scholar Apartments Columbus State opened the Visiting Scholar Apartments at the start of August 2013 with a generous donation from the Mildred Miller Fort Foundation. The three apartments are located at the RiverPark campus near the corner of 10th Street and Broadway, within easy walking distance of the thriving downtown district and the river. This year’s Amos Eminent and Fort Foundation Visiting Scholars enjoyed living in these apartments. During the year CIE and CSU were pleased to host sixty visiting scholars in the Broadway Crossing Visiting Scholar Apartments.

Faculty Development Study Abroad Teaching and Directing Faculty members play a central role in comprehensive internationalization. Through teaching and involvement in international programs, faculty members bring the world to CSU. Teaching a study abroad class enables faculty members to teach through action and experience but also to recast classes at home by heightening the international content and perspectives. Each year the Center hosts a workshop for all faculty members interested in teaching abroad. The Center also works closely all year with faculty members developing or administering programs and teaching in programs. A near record number of thirty-four faculty members taught or directed study abroad programs during the academic year. Faculty participation and support is essential to the development and operation of study abroad programs and the recruitment of students into programs.

Study Abroad Program Development Grants Six faculty members received Study Abroad Program Development Grants from the International Education Fee to develop new programs or revise existing programs. Victor Salazar and Anna Wan received grants to revise the Diversity in Education Ecuador Program by developing new school partners in Quito. Stacey Meyers Prosyniuk received a grant to expand the existing Nursing in Ireland Program by adding a Spanish component. Ekaterina Strekalova also received a grant, joining Meyers Prosnyniuk to develop an education leadership in Ireland program. Katherine White received a grant to develop a Cross-Cultural Psychology and service learning program in Gambia. A small grant was provided to Michele McCrillis to conduct a site visit at John Cabot University in Rome while serving as an instructor in the CSU in Italy Summer Program in Florence. CSU Faculty Oxford Workshop For the fifth time the Center received generous funding from J. Kyle Spencer to conduct a CSU Faculty Oxford Workshop for a week in late August and early September 2014. Six faculty members were chosen by a selection committee of past participants. Faculty in this year’s workshop included Marlene Allen (English), Brett Cotten (Finance), Rose Danek (Psychology), Youngrak Park (Communication), Eliot Rendleman (English) and Tom Simpson (Political Science). Most of the participants had never visited Oxford previously and only one has taught a class abroad. During the workshop faculty members learned about Oxford, London and the UK. In addition they developed field trips and honed pedagogical skills to teach a study abroad class. During the five annual workshops, twenty-six CSU faculty members have participated. Of those, nineteen have taught in CSU study abroad programs or are scheduled to do so by 2016. Study Abroad and Exchange Programs Enrollments Study abroad enrollment increased slightly above last year, setting a record for the third year in a row despite slight ongoing declines in general CSU enrollment since 2012. Unfortunately the change in the study abroad coordinator position during fall semester hampered the Center during that critical recruitment period.

The Center utilized a series of marketing publications, including a general brochure, a grants & scholarship handout, and a brochure template that was introduced for all faculty-led and semester programs. The publication “branding” provided more cohesion in the recruitment effort and the Center will continue to use these next year. We continued with the Global Ambassador Program again this year. Study abroad returnees who were selected as Global Ambassadors provided walk-in peer advising for students. In addition our Global Ambassadors made study abroad presentations in 180 classes to increase students’ interest in studying abroad. Although two study abroad programs were cancelled this year due to low enrollment, three new programs were successfully implemented. The Center will be working with the program directors of the canceled programs to develop new approaches or techniques that will lead to the success of these programs in the future. During 2014-2015, the Center hosted the annual Study Abroad Fair in September to introduce students to all of the programs. Again, the Center offered the Cougar Passport Competition to students who attended the fair and other International Education Week events. Three students won and used awards for study abroad. In addition, the Center held well in excess of two hundred recruitment events across the campus:

• Information tables at various locations across campus (24) • Classroom presentations and information sessions (192) • CSU Visitation Day presentations, including tables and information panels (5) • Presentations for Funding/Financial Aid, Honors, Residence Life, the Sophomore Year

Experience, etc. (7) The Study Abroad Coordinator and Global Ambassadors provided information sessions, tables and parent presentations during the many new student orientations or ROAR program.

The Study Abroad Coordinator, with the assistance of other CIE staff, was heavily involved with new student orientations during summer 2015 ROAR by hosting student concurrent sessions, academic fair tables and parent programming.

In hopes of continuing to increase study abroad enrollment in the coming academic year, the Center will continue to work closely with academic departments and student affairs offices to diversify its outreach to CSU students. The Center will also continue the Global Ambassador program enabling returned study abroad students the opportunity to share their international experiences with the campus. The Center had succeeded in increasing the diversity of students participating in study abroad but there was a setback this year, particularly among African-American students who were 17% of study abroad students this year, down from 23% last year. Through partnerships with the Office of Diversity and underrepresented majors, the Center will work to increase student diversity. Study Abroad Demographics by Ethnicity

New Programs

The Center assisted faculty members in developing and leading three new programs this academic year. The Turner College of Business and Computer Science led a very popular study abroad program for undergraduate and graduate business students to Ireland during Maymester. Also during Maymester, the School of Nursing led a study abroad program to Quito, Ecuador. During the summer students participated in our first internship program. The London Internship Program also included the Introduction to International Studies class while students completed a customized six-week internship related to their major. The program surpassed its enrollment target.

During the current year, the Center was fortunate to develop two more international partnerships which will include student exchange. These new linkages are with the University of Chichester in England and Weifang University in Shandong, China. In addition, four new faculty-led programs are proposed for the upcoming year: a TESOL Internship in South Korea, Cross-Cultural Perspectives in Sport in Ireland, Democracy and Human Rights Program in Turkey and Cross-Cultural Psychology and Service Learning in Gambia.

Scholarships and Study Abroad Grants More than three hundred scholarship and grant awards were given to students participating in study abroad programs. The study abroad grant funded by the International Education Fee continues to be in high demand as demonstrated by the long line of waiting students on the mornings when grants became available. The Center has requested a report from the Director of Financial Aid on the impact of the study abroad grant by comparing students who participated before and after the grant became available. This year’s grants ranged from $650 to $1,250. Due to the continued generosity of donors, CSU has many study abroad scholarships provided by the Fort Foundation, Mr. Kyle Spencer, the Nakai Fund, the Kidd-Bagley Fund, the Katherine and LeGrand Elebash Fund, CSU Honors Scholarships, and the Campus Internationalization Fund. This will be the final year that we will be able to give scholarships from the Campus Internationalization Fund. For a decade it has been our largest fund, providing $30,000 annually in scholarships.

International Students In continuing our goal for comprehensive internationalization we are always searching for cross-cultural learning opportunities between U.S. and international students through new initiatives and the expansion of current programs. CIE has increased international student involvement in the community by bringing students into community volunteering. Partnerships with local community groups and organizations have been expanded and revitalized to provide programming for our students. The International Club campus student organization has thrived under new student leadership. Social media has allowed students to interact more and also allows new students to start connecting with current students before arrival. The club includes international, study abroad and International Learning Community students. Enrollments During the 2014-2015 academic year, CSU enrolled a total of 123 international students on J and F visas during the fall semester and 118 international students during the spring semester. CSU has an estimated additional 30 students per semester that are here on various other Visas.

During fall 2014 the top five countries from which CSU received the most students were South Korea (11), China (10), Russia (9), Colombia (9) and Germany (7). During spring 2015 the five top sending countries were South Korea (15), Colombia (14), China (11), Russia (8) and Canada (6). The high number of students from South Korea is due to partnerships that have developed with Korean partner universities. CSU has developed relationships with various contacts in Colombia and has increased recruitment from Colombia mostly through the English Language Institute. The high numbers from China and Russia are mostly students who attend our Schwob School of Music.

International students represent approximately 1.5% of CSU’s regular student population. Georgia ranks 13th in the U.S. in the number of foreign students in the state with the heaviest population in the Atlanta area. The majority of these students in Georgia are from China (28%) and India (14%). International students contributed approximately $3,197,000 to CSU and the local economy in 2014 [Based on NAFSA and the Institute of International Education Open Door reports]. Top Majors for International Students CSU’s most popular majors for international students are Music (21%), Business (11%), the English Language Institute (CSU’s ESOL program) (12%), Marketing (6%) and Computer Science (6%). Transient or exchange students make up approximately 12% of our international student population. In contrast to most U.S. institutions, CSU has a large number of international students studying music due to the program’s reputation and the scholarships provided.

Programming • International Student Service Scholarship (ISSS) - The International Student Service

Scholarship (ISSS) was started in August 2007. Each semester 14 students are awarded ISSS waivers for in-state tuition. In return these students are required to complete 25 “service” hours for CIE, CSU and in the community. Students assist with International Student Orientation, Global Dialogues, community events and many other internationalization activities. These students are very active and have formed a very cohesive group that has flourished into a leadership team for the Center for International Education.

• World at Reach Program – The World at Reach Program places international students in

classrooms on campus and in the local community to give presentations or informal talks on topics relevant to the student’s international experiences or background.

• Global Dialogues – Global Dialogues are round-table discussions between international and U.S.

students about various topics. Global Dialogues provide a venue for exchange of ideas, opinions and viewpoints and a way to gain new perspectives from diverse cultures. With the support of the International Learning Community instructors, Global Dialogues have included a total of approximately 550 students. There were 281participants during Fall 2014 and 272 participants during Spring 2015. There are 9 Global Dialogues each semester, three of which are at our RiverPark campus. The goal is to provide every CSU student with the opportunity to become involved in cross-cultural programming.

• Georgia International Leadership Conference – The Georgia International Leadership

Conference is an annual gathering of various international and study abroad students across the state of Georgia. Students come together to network, share ideas, and develop leadership qualities. The Center sent a delegation of ten study abroad and international students to attend the conference along with 4 Diversity Peer Educators from the Office of Diversity Programs and Services.

• Field Trips – Each semester the Center offers international students one or two field trips such as

the Atlanta Zoo and Providence Canyon.

International Student Services Admitting and retaining international students necessitates providing services beyond those generally offered to U.S. students. Some accomplishments since Fall 2014 include: • A complete restructure of International Student Orientation sessions which now include staff and

faculty presentations from pertinent areas of the campus. Night and weekend events have also been added to the agenda.

• The Center collaborated with the Office of Recruitment to create a CSU “International Programs

Landing Page” while overhauling the International Student Services webpages and adding much more information to assist incoming and continuing students.

• Earlier class registration for incoming students was implemented for Fall 2014 in order to provide

students with more choices rather than having them arrive to find many of the classes full and unavailable.

• Center revitalized the International Student Sub-Committee by involving many offices across

campus. It now meets monthly to improve services for international students.

Ongoing Services • International Student Service Scholarship Orientation & Programming • International Student Orientation (every semester)

International Student Award Kiongozi Award for Outstanding International Leadership – Kiongozi means leader in Swahili. The Kiongozi Award for Outstanding International Leadership is the only award at CSU specifically for international students. It is awarded to one graduating international student (either undergraduate or graduate) each academic year based on demonstrated extra-curricular involvement and academic leadership. The 2014-2015 Kiongozi award was presented to Ashraff Buari at the CSU Legacy Banquet. Ashraff, a citizen of Ghana, completed his Pre-Med degree with a 3.9 grade point average while serving as an International Student Service Scholarship volunteer.

American Cross Cultural Experience (ACCE) The Center developed a new initiative to increase international student enrollment and use these students to increase the global engagement of students across disciplines. The American Cross-Cultural Experience (ACCE) Program will be available in fall 2015 to students from partner universities. English proficient students at these institutions may enroll in full-time study (12-15 credit hours per semester) in regularly offered academic courses for one or two semesters. This will provide an opportunity for students selected at partner universities to experience an American university, learn in an English-speaking environment and study subjects typically not offered at their home university.

The "CSU CounterParts" component matches a regular CSU student mentor (typically an International Studies Certificate student or study abroad returnee) with each ACCE student on a one-to-one basis. "CSU CounterParts" will participate in weekly student-to-student cross-cultural activities organized by the Center for International Education and serve as an international "buddy," sharing knowledge of CSU, Columbus and the United States.

ACCE also provides extra support services and learning opportunities beyond the classroom including monthly field trips to area museums, sporting events and attractions at no additional cost. Typical field trips will include White Water Express and Blue Heron Zip Line, FDR's “Little White House,” Callaway Gardens, the Martin Luther King Jr. Center, the Atlanta Aquarium, CNN, and Atlanta Braves baseball.

International Linkages and Partnerships Columbus State University has formal partnerships with thirty-two universities around the world. A few of these relationships date back more than a decade but most have been developed during the past six or seven years. Agreements with international partners serve students and faculty at both institutions. In many cases the partnership is intended to develop student exchanges and other academic programs. A full list of all CSU’s international partnerships is on the Center’s website at http://cie.columbusstate.edu/int_partners.php. Our new partner institutions this year include:

• Bangor University, Cardiff, Wales • Cherwell School, Oxford, United Kingdom • University of the Basque Country, Basque, Spain • Weifang University, Shandong, People’s Republic of China

Phi Beta Delta On March 19, 2015 the Delta Nu chapter of Phi Beta Delta inducted seven faculty, staff and honorary members and twenty-three students. The keynote speakers were Mr. J. Larry Kees and Ms. Katherine “Katie” Holmes. Kees was recognized as this year’s ΦΒΔ Outstanding Study Abroad Staff, and Holmes was recognized as this year’s ΦΒΔ Outstanding Study Abroad Student. ΦΒΔ is an international honorary society that recognizes the international scholarship and learning of students and faculty. All student inductees must be international students or have participated in study abroad programs as well as demonstrating high academic achievement. John Finley served as president of the chapter, Anjelica Campbell served as vice president, Kimberly Lawrence served as secretary, and Jessica Parks served as treasurer. During the fall the chapter held its annual study abroad reunion. Students from several 2014-2015 programs developed audiovisual presentations which they shared with other students.

Grants and Gifts The Center depends very heavily upon financial support from donors and outside organizations. It is not possible for most CSU students to participate in study abroad programs without financial assistance. Mr. Kyle Spencer provided very generous support for the Spencer Scholars who were able to participate in the CSU in Oxford Visiting Student Program despite the high tuition cost of the University of Oxford. The ten-year commitment for study abroad scholarships from the “Investment in People” Capital Campaign has come to an end. During the past decade this funding provided the largest number of scholarships for study abroad and Columbus State University will need to pursue new funding to replace these scholarships.

Study Abroad Grants funded by the International Education Fee are vital to broadening participation in international education over the past two years. The vast majority of fee revenue was used to provide $158,800 in Study Abroad Grants. Small amounts were also used for the International Learning Community programming and study abroad program development.
