course individual students of refugee backgrounds.
What was especially insightful was the opportunity to analyze each feature of the
‘refugee educational journal in Germany’ in the three different cities of Hamburg,
Chemnitz, and Berlin. This allowed for an in-depth dive into many focus areas, including
exploring the language issue, psychosocial support needs, and the meaning of integration
vs. assimilation. Especially in this time of turmoil in relation to immigration, gaining a
perspective from a country like Germany where “refugees are welcome” encourages us
in the current U.S. context to take a stance and support those who have been forced to
leave their country and begin again in a new setting.

Books
Gregory Malveaux and Rosalind Raby are pleased to announce the publication of Study Abroad
Opportunities for Community College Students and Strategies for Global Learning (IGI-Global).
This is the first book on community college education abroad. The chapters in the book
showcase education abroad at rural community colleges, within technical and career programs,
and for racially and economically diverse students. Authors
are community college education abroad directors,
providers, and academics who study community colleges.
Empirical and case studies reflect on the changing field and
inform on important issues such as access, diversity,
engagement, and assessment. Most importantly, the chapters
in this book dismantle the claims that education abroad is
underutilized at community colleges. Eight broad themes
showcase the unique contributions made by community
colleges. (1) Measures for success; (2) Embedding
education abroad into campus community; (3) Stakeholders;
(4) Institutional factors; (5) Program development; (6) Social
justice pedagogy and curriculum; (7) Standards and Risk
Management; and (8) Assessment, Outcomes and Impact
