The Global Campus: Education Abroad and the University of California

Bill Allaway traces the birth of Berkeley's education abroad program. Allaway's vision of the value of an international academic/cultural experience for students coupled with his peerless skill as Berkeley's ambassador to the world enabled him to navigate the complex international world with a personal style that was free from arrogance and marked by a droll wit. Thanks to Allaway, Berkeley's education abroad program achieved what University Professor Neil Smelser calls "the enviable status of being the finest of its kind in the world."
