The goal of the Council is to bring about a global perspective on the campuses of its member institutions and the nation through cooperative programs and the sharing of resources to generate new ideas in such areas as: study abroad, foreign students, faculty development and exchange, and cultural sensitivity. Accordingly, the purpose of this monthly newsletter is to disseminate information on cross cultural or intercultural communications programs in higher education, usually describing workshop programs, seminars, special courses, research activities, also intergroup training techniques. Announcements are also made of publications and conferences. Those interested in receiving the newsletter regularly should request that their name be placed on the mailing list; back issues are still available. (Author/JSB)
