Globalizing forces have both transformed the higher education sector and made it increasingly homogenous. Growing similarities among universities have been attributed to isomorphic pressures to ensure and/or enhance legitimacy by imitating higher education institutions that are perceived as successful internationally, particularly universities that...
Through promoting values of academic hospitality and mutuality we can reframe internationalisation of higher education in a more ethical way – based on cooperation and respect and intercultural engagement within and beyond the campus – and use it as a means to a greater common global good.
Amidst public calls for greater internationalization, universities are marketing to international students. We explore how universities in regional hubs (Lee & Schoole, 2015) enact "dramaturgical performances" (Goffman, 1959), presenting images of themselves in geopolitical space. We find: (1) bifurcated marketing strategies to distinct student aud...
International student services centers (ISSC) at postsecondary institutions in the United States are central to supporting international students' transition and adjustment needs. As leaders of these units, ISSC directors are "managerial professionals" (MPs), exhibiting characteristics of both traditional academic and administrative roles. These qu...

The COVID-19 pandemic presented a unique shared challenge for all HEIs leaders around the world. Besides balancing institutional tasks and ensuring the health and safety of the campus community, university presidents were challenged with promoting equity and showing empathy in their leadership. Framed by Henry Mintzberg's (1973) theory on manageria...
Este artículo destaca la importancia del español como idioma mundialmente hablado y su relevancia en la educación superior. A pesar de que el español es uno de los idiomas más hablados en el mundo, especialmente en términos de hablantes nativos, la brecha entre la producción científica en español y en inglés es significativa. Sin embargo, se resalt...

While there is research that has explored how institutions have responded to various crises, these are usually locally or regionally situated. However, no event has impacted higher education globally like COVID-19 and it will certainly alter the way top administrators lead and how institutions move forward. Thus, this chapter will explore how to be...
Presidents have difficult roles regardless of systemic context and in times of crisis their work is especially complex. While the body of work on presidents generally is growing, understanding of their role in crisis is underdeveloped. In this study, we enhance research on presidential crisis leadership by applying the competing values framework to...

Framed as an autoethnography, this study builds upon my personal and academic journey from 'being' an international student in the United States to 'becoming' a scholar who studies issues of international student mobility. Through a comprehensive dataset comprised of self-reflection, personal communications, published and unpublished scholarly work...
Globalization has changed the landscape of higher education. The purpose of this study is to enhance understanding of how higher education leaders are engaging emerging questions about successful leadership, particularly when it comes to international student populations in times of crisis. Guided by the Intercultural Leadership framework, this com...
The global COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world we live in in the most invasive ways. Higher education institutions around the globe are faced with new emerging questions about successful leadership, particularly when it comes to the international campus population in times of crisis. Supported by Grounded Theory, this comparative case study ill...
Este artículo resalta algunos de los principales hallazgos de un estudio liderado por la Asociación Mexicana para la Educación Internacional (AMPEI) que logró documentar el sentir, pensar y actuar de diversos actores del ecosistema de internacionalización de la educación superior a lo largo del continente americano, frente a los retos de la “nueva...
Drawing from resource dependence theory, this study explores the extent to which international student enrollment related to institutional decisions to shift to in-person instructional strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic. We focus our study particularly on July 2020, a time during which tensions around international students' legal status in th...
Inspired by UNESCO’s WHEC2022 and the issues identified as part of the consultations for this event by IESALC, the Journal of International and Comparative Higher Education is interested in proposals of academic works focusing on Latin America and the Caribbean higher education addressing any of these key issues above framed under the challenges an...
After the COVID-19 pandemic forced higher education institutions (HEIs) in the United States (US) to transition into online instruction, a particular subpopulation of students was highly impacted: international students. This study is aimed at understanding the impact of COVID-19 on international students' social support, financial wellbeing and ps...
This brief essay is an introduction to the theorization of institutional funds of knowledge (IFK) as an emerging concept along with its application in the context of organizational theory particularly around issues of higher education institutions (HEIs). IFK refers to the skills and knowledge that have been historically and culturally developed an...
Symbiosis eXpress IntlEd Magazine.
As associations/networks/consortia, we are bridge-builders in the international education ecosystem; we maintain, expand, and create opportunities for collaboration. By working together, we can become promoters of constructive symbiotic relationships. Let us rebuild our global village through mutual understanding...
Mexico faced two public-health crises in eleven years: the (A)H1N1 crisis in 2009 and the current COVID-19 one. While different in magnitude and impact, each one compromised higher education institutions’ (HEIs) academic continuity and international programs. In this chapter, we analyze, from an organizational perspective, whether or not, and to wh...
Drawing from theories of academic capitalism and resource dependence, this study explores the extent to which international student enrollment related to institutional decisions to shift to in-person instructional strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic. We focus our study particularly on July 2020, a time during which tensions around international...
Internationalization, as a process that most higher education institutions (HEIs) take part in, keeps moving closer to market-like practices that can enable it to also drift farther away from the democratic mission of education. Most of the dominant practices of internationalization come from the Anglo-American world but their pervasiveness makes i...
Since the United States is the number one destination in the world for international students (Institute of International Education 2019), the expectations are high for the country’s colleges and universities to provide a welcoming environment. For the past 4 years, the social and political climate in the country has made this task even more compli...
In this recent essay, we reflect on how the current wave of neo-nativism in the U.S. has resulted in completely racist policies. But the current policy agenda is unfortunately not always called-out in that way nor is it analyzed accordingly. We have witnessed in recent times rising nationalistic and nativistic attacks that have impacted higher educ...
International students in the U.S. have been pushed out and dehumanized by the policies of the Trump Administration. While sometimes the arguments used to defend the importance of international students tend to perpetuate their commodification; the rapid, coordinated, and powerful mobilization led by scholars and higher education institutions after...
Chapter Highlights:
- Research has shown a positive relationship between education abroad (EA) participation and retention and degree completion.
- University alumni who participated in EA are more likely to donate to educational institutions than their peers who did not study abroad.
- Involvement in EA programs has pushed institutions to seek i...
Although it has one of the less expensive costs of attendance, universal access to higher education in México is still far away from becoming a reality. The federal government along with the public and private educational institutions have implemented different approaches to increase access but the gap among higher and lower strata of the populatio...
Following the 2016 U.S. presidential election and the government openly anti-immigrant rhetoric threatening to deport unauthorized immigrants (including students with DACA protection), several actors in Mexico organized to launch the PUENTES program to facilitate enrollment of Mexican students living in the U.S. at a Mexican HEI to finish their deg...
The United States is the leading country host of the world’s internationally mobile higher education students, enrolling almost a fourth of the world’s total. Although international students offer countless benefits to U.S. colleges and universities, they are often a misunderstood and negatively stereotyped population. There are common shortcomings...
Internationalization strategies are becoming pervasive within HEIs, but a common thread that aligns diverse international activities with the essence of each institution’s public good mission is missing. Some Institutions enact an approach that challenges the current mainstream Anglo-American construct of internationalization while contributing to...

North America is among the wealthiest, most diverse and most influential regions in the world. The region is also faced with substantial shared challenges, many of them not confined to any single country or even only to the region. The complexity introduced by this diversity creates an interesting set of problems and opportunities for the Consortiu...
This is an Op-Ed first published in Inside Higher Education's "The World View Blog". I discuss why and how Higher Education Institutions, particularly in the Anglo-American world, need to move beyond multiculturalism and towards a more purposeful approach to interculturalism. International students on campus need to be valued for their uniquenesses...
Within the internationalization strategies of higher education institutions, there is a recent tendency to shift from moving people to moving programs and providers. Transnational education in the form of international branch campuses became an important phenomenon during this century’s first decade. However, criticisms and risks associated with op...
Global pressures and disciplinary mechanisms have homogenized higher education institutions (HEIs) from different geopolitical contexts, which now try to imitate normalized notions and structures of higher education. Internationalization strategies are becoming more pervasive in all substantive functions of HEIs. However, there seems to be a missin...
The following text contains my personal reflections and some of my remarks delivered during the Council for International Higher Education (CIHE) Presidential Panel session at the Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE) annual meeting in Tampa Bay, Florida (Nov, 2018).
