We have several currently active research projects:
- Community College International Education: Stratified Access to Global Learning Opportunities counters the marginalization of community colleges in U.S. international higher education through a comprehensive account of global learning opportunities available in this sector. This study uses institutional stratification theory to explore institutional characteristics and student demographics associated with the provision of various international opportunities.
- Financial Support for Community College Study Abroad provides an inventory of the various financial support approaches that community colleges use to encourage students to study abroad. This study also examines the relationship between these financial support approaches and overall study abroad participation alongside participation among marginalized student groups.
- Language Matters: Understanding International Education Discourses at U.S. Community Colleges offers a Critical Discourse Analysis of community college webpages dedicated to international programs to better understand how they are being positioned and how these discourses may reflect different ideological underpinnings.
