Abstract
Significant study regarding student mobility focuses on understanding what internationalization is, why it occurs and what effects it has on higher education. However, as shown in this chapter, student destinations also reflect the struggles that occur outside of campus regarding higher education and help display some of the tensions surrounding internationalization. This chapter provided details on how private colleges recruited foreign students to help boost tuition dollars. This paper also examined how race relations and inequalities can both be a product of and response to internationalization efforts. Understanding that global institutions can have agency as well when it comes to international education is important to understand.Keywords
