DEFINITON OF TERMS IN CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • TERMINOLOGY
  • The Difference Between Globalization and
    Internationalization
  • -- Perception, Prejudice, and Regional
    Differences
  • -- Outreach and Understanding as the Essence
    of the Concept
  • International Education versus Campus
    Internationalization
  • -- Traditional versus Modern Application
  • -- Broader, More Encompassing versus
    Narrower, More Specific

10
CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • What Constitutes Internationalization
  • in a Campus Community Today?

-- Curricular or co-curricular activities /
curricular co-curricular activities --
Narrowly or broadly focused
  • Internationalization as a Change Agent!
  • What is the Genesis of Internationalization?
  • -- Individual faculty or staff members pet
    projects
  • -- Academic Disciplines perceived needs for
    student
  • international exposure
  • -- Co-curricular staff initiatives Service
    Learning, etc.

11
CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Do Small Colleges or Large Universities have
    any Inherent Advantages in Internationalizing
    Their Campuses?
  • -- Flexibility
  • -- Bureaucracy
  • -- Funding
  • Is There Really an Identifiable Process for
    Campus Internationalization?

12
SOME MODELS OF CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
Campus Internationalization can be Modeled!
13
GENERAL MANIFESTATIONS OF THESE CAMPUS
INTERNATIONALIZATIONAL MODELS

specific narrow focuses such as study abroad
alone or broad ranging curricular/co-curricular
activities across the campus. Curricular --
Individual Courses/Parts of Courses --
Discipline/Department wide Projects -- General
Education Program -- Discipline-Oriented Study
Abroad -- Education of International
Students Co-Curricular -- International
Diversity Activities -- Ethnic Celebrations --

SILOS MODEL OF CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Advantages
  • -- Synergy Gained Through Similar Mission
    Needs
  • -- Direct Concern for Specific Academic
    Requirements
  • -- Segments of the Community Dedicated to
    International Relationships
  • Disadvantages
  • -- Extreme Ownership with Budget Implications
  • -- Redundancy and Duplication of Efforts
  • -- Less Responsive to Institution-wide
    Concerns
  • -- Disadvantages with Institutional
    Relationships

16
TRANSITIONAL MODEL OF CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Advantages
  • -- Easier Reach than Centralization/Consolidat
    ion
  • -- Affects more of the Campus than Silos or
    Islands
  • -- Politically, less Risky than Centralized
    Model
  • -- Increases Perception of Internationalizatio
    n as Key Element
  • for Campus Community
  • Disadvantages
  • -- Less Efficient/Still Duplicates Efforts
  • -- Less Student Friendly
  • -- Decentralized Budgets are More Vulnerable
  • -- Potential Marginalization

17
CENTRALIZED MODEL OF CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Advantages
  • -- Integration One stop shopping Continuity
    of Institutional Concerns
  • -- Efficiency Reduces the Redundancy in
    Administrative Support
  • -- Service Beyond the Needs of Academic
    Programming
  • Disadvantages
  • -- Disassociation International Issues? Oh,
    thats their job!
  • -- Dislocation Not our Program Why Invest?
  • -- Potential Marginalization
  • -- Service Potential for Impersonal Service

18
CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Do These Models Describe an Evolutionary Path ?
  • Where is Your Institution in Terms of These
    Models?
  • -- Institutional Internationalization Audits
  • -- Assessment of Strengths and Weakness
  • -- Hired Guns The usefulness of an outside
    interrogator/supporter
  • Is Evolution Even Necessary in Your Institution
    ?

19
CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Internationalization is a Process that . . .
  • Demands Broad Commitment
  • -- It must be an integral part of the
    Mission of the Institution
  • -- It must be included in the strategic plan
  • -- It takes major buy-in and consensus
    building to transition
  • from model to model (by Faculty,
    Staff, Administration, and
  • Students)
  • Is a Long-Term Operation
  • -- Even those Institutions that settle for a
    specific model must
  • work to preserve it
  • Cannot be Accomplished On the Cheap

20
CAMPUS INTERNATIONALIZATION
  • Finally, How Do You Get There From Here?
  • Dedicated Professional Staff (Staff
    Development)
  • Dedicated Leadership (High Level Emphasis)
  • Organizationally Placed to Maximize Effort,
  • But Maintain Relationships
  • Dedicated Budget (Operational Developmental)
  • Entrepreneurship

22
Existential Administrative Questions
  • How can I accomplish what needs to be done?
  • How can I direct and motivate my staff to do
    their part of the work?
  • How can I garner the support that I need at all
    levels of the institution?
  • How can I be sure Im doing it correctly?

23
Existential Administrative Questions
  • But the essential question
  • How do I know what to work on? Especiallywhat
    to do next?
  • Urgent is not the same as Vital!

24
  • The 7 Habits of Spectacularly Unsuccessful
    Executives
  • 1. They thought of themselves as gods in worlds
    they created, and "vastly overestimated" the
    extent to which they could control events.2.
    They saw their businesses as extensions of
    themselves. They gave themselves lavish perks and
    spent company money as if it were their personal
    money.

25
  • 3. They believed what some people were saying
    about them that they were geniuses.4. They got
    rid of all those not fully behind them.
    (Grandiose illusions are often accompanied by
    paranoia.)5. They became junkies for good PR.
    Having been in the limelight once, they were
    eager to get there again and directed the
    company's time and other resources to achieve
    that dubious end.

26
  • 6. They underestimated the difficulty of
    accomplishing their ambitious plans, often
    overriding the objections of loyal and
    experienced subordinates. 7. They were afraid
    to innovate and stuck only with what worked
    before.

Brockingtons 4 Rules
  • Be right
  • Be polite
  • Be on time
  • Be under budget

28
Administrative Models
  • International Office as bridge between the
    senior administration and faculty as well as a
    bridge among academic units (also among
    academic and administrative units) . (Jack Van de
    Water)
  • Ideas
  • Funds
  • Services

29
Areas of Responsibility
  • A. Study Abroad
  • B. Domestic Off-Campus Programs
  • C, International Students and Scholars
  • D.     Provide administrative oversight, support
    and budget tracking for grant-funded
    international activities and projects
  • E. University Partnerships
  • F. Collaboration with the Center for Career
    Development and the Colleges Experiential
    Education Programs
  • G. Promotion of International Education

30
Administrative Models
  • International Office as Individual
  • International Office as Department
  • International Office as Entrepreneur (independent
    contractor)

31
Administrative Models
Budget Dependence Status Quo?
Budget Autonomy Entrepreneurship
Budget Support. Room for innovation, if can
find funding.
32
Financial Models
  • A.   International Office as Individual The
    institutions general fund pays for everything.
  • B. International Office as Department The
    institutions general fund pays for
    administrative costs only. 
  • C. International Programs Office as
    Entrepreneur The office expenses are funded by
    student fees and there is no direct link to the
    institutions general fund. (Cost/Recovery
    Model International Programs as autonomous unit)

33
Education Abroad Program Pricing Models
  • A Retail Model Students pay a comprehensive
    fee equivalent to the institutions tuition,
    room, board College pays everything overseas.
  • B Factory DirectNo Frills Model Students pay
    all actual program costs themselves, including
    travel College pays nothing 
  • C Sams Club Model Students pay all program
    costs themselves PLUS pay an administrative
    charge to the College.

34
Education Abroad Program Pricing Models
  • D My Brother-in-Law can get you a discount or
    you can take your chances model
  • Students pay the institutions comprehensive fee
    for affiliated (i.e. approved) programs (and
    are able to transfer their institutional
    financial assistance)
  • actual costs for non-affiliated (i.e.
    non-approved) programs (but without
    transferability of institutional financial
    assistance) and are often forced to take a leave
    of absence to participate in these programs.

35
  • International Education Office/Program Funding
    Model
  •  
  • Program Pricing Model(s)
  • Budget Model(s)

36
Financial Rules for Literature Majors
  • Know your budget better than the business office
    and your superiors. 
  • 2. Decide what the sticker price of the program
    will include, e.g. Tuition? Meals? Lodging?
    Excursions? Air? ISIC? Insurance? And make sure
    all programs are priced the same way in your
    catalogue.

37
Financial Rules for Literature Majors
  • 3. Establish a common denominator for budget
    comparisons. (e.g. student/semester,
    student/semester hour, etc.) Always use this
    denominator when discussing program costs in
    budget meetings.

38
Financial Rules for Literature Majors
  • 4. Know how financial aid for education abroad is
    handled
  • Who determines which programs are aid
    transferable.
  • Who determines how much (or how many aid FTE) can
    be transferred.
  • Which budget is charged for financial aid.
  • What is the discount rate (merit scholarships and
    grants) for the institution.
  •  5. Always generate a surplus!

39
Financial Rules for Literature Majors
  • You cannot pay a real bills with discounted
    dollars!

40
Resource Allocation
  • Resource eaters
  • Resource generators
  • Resource sharing/resource leveraging

41
Discussion
  • What administrative and/or financial challenges
    is your office facing?
  • Think about your office as a bridge. What
    resources in terms of ideas, funding, and
    services can you offer?
  • What one idea have you heard so far that you are
    interested in trying next week?

42
Models for Transferability of Institutional
Financial Aid
  • A. The institution allows the full
    transferability of all institutional financial
    assistance/scholarships to any study abroad
    program approved for transfer of credit. 
  •  

43
Models for Transferability of Institutional
Financial Aid
  • B. The Institution limits the transferability of
    institutional financial assistance/scholarships
    to Off-Campus study programs by
  • Limiting the total dollar amount transferred by
    limiting the number of students who are permitted
    to study off-campus (or the number of student
    semesters of transferability) or by setting a
    total dollar cap on transferability.
  • Limiting the number of programs to which students
    can transfer institutional financial
    assistance/scholarships.
  • Limiting the transferability of financial
    assistance to need-based assistance onlyMerit
    scholarships are not transferable.

44
Models for Transferability of Institutional
Financial Aid
  • C. The institution does not permit the transfer
    of any institutional financial assistance/scholars
    hips.

46
A brief discussion of Tort law
  • any wrongdoing for which an action for damages
    may be brought
  • May be intentional (battery/assault, trespass,)
  • or unintentional (many forms of negligence)

47
Duty in Higher Education
  • Courts confront the law of student/university
    relations on a situational basis one case at a
    time and are demonstrably influenced by two
    counter balancing notions.
  • The direct analogies between cases involving
    student injury and cases involving business
    responsibility,
  • Seeing the university as a unique environment,
    which deserves some protection from the rules.
    (Bickel and Lake, 105)

48
Tort Law continued
  • Discussion of Negligence
  • Generally, refers to a failure to live up to a
    specific standard of care
  • Four elements
  • A duty to exercise reasonable care (may be
    special relationship and/or may be a stranger)
  • Breach of that duty
  • Your breach is the proximate cause of an injury
  • Resulting damages
  • All four elements must be proven to recover
  • Must ask if the injury was 1. Foreseeable and/or
    2. Foreseeable to a particular plaintiff

49
The Changing Legal Environment
  • In Loco Parentis Era Family based tort
    immunities of the time were used to protect the
    university from lawsuits regarding discipline,
    regulation, and punishment of students. The
    university acted as a surrogate parent
  • Civil Rights EraStudents acquired the privilege
    to exercise their constitutional rights on campus
    and seek protection from the courts.
  • Bystander EraThe courts began to approach
    lawsuits involving students and universities
    using the legal analytical tools of duty and no
    duty. Emphasis in some cases was the belief that
    students are responsible for themselves.
  • Duty EraThe university and students have shared
    responsibility - in short we are seeing more
    decisions that indicate the end of the no-duty
    era and an emphasis on a belief that the
    university owes duty to students and students owe
    duty to themselves

Responsibilities of the Modern University, Who

50
The Concept of Duty
  • Who is Responsible?
  • Program Administrators
  • Overseas Partners
  • Participants
  • Parents/Guardians of Participants

51
Duty and Care
  • Duty
  • The concept of legal duty is neither rigid nor
    static. A court can create a new duty if, after
    evaluating the interest of the parties, it
    decides that a plaintiff should be entitled to
    legal protection against a defendants conduct
    (Kaplan and Lee, 108)
  • Standards of Care
  • The Reasonably Prudent Person considers
  • Foreseeable risks of injury
  • The extent of the risk proposed by her/his
    conduct
  • The likelihood of the risk actually causing harm
  • Whether alternatives to the proposed conduct
    would achieve the same purpose with a lesser
    degree of risk

52
The Duty Partnership
  • Administrative role in partnerships
  • Accept the newly defined responsibility
  • Appropriately utilize General Counsel to frame
    strategies for meeting the challenges of
    administrative responsibility
  • Clearly communicate expectations to staff and
    students
  • Design proactive processes to empower staff to
    create a safe and productive environment
  • Respond appropriately to decisions and/or
    incidents that are not aligned with expectations
  • Student role in the partnerships
  • Accept responsibility as both individuals and
    members of a community
  • Embrace the proactive processes that serve as the
    foundation for their partnership with the
    institution
