It Takes a Curriculum: Bringing Global Mindedness Home

Abstract

Talya Zemach-Bersin, a 2007 graduate of Wesleyan University, laments in a Chronicle of Higher Education opinion piece that her semester-long study abroad experience in Tibetan studies “focused on cultural and language studies while avoiding the very issues that were in many ways most compelling and relevant to our experiences.” “Why,” she asks, “had we not analyzed race, identity, and privilege when those factors were informing every one of our interactions?… Was there nothing to be said about the power dynamics of claiming global citizenship?” (ZemachBersin, 2008, p. A34).
