Abstract
In this chapter, the author examines the perceptions of community college faculty’s international experience and internationalization at their campuses. The findings indicated a statistical difference between two types of faculty members: foreign-born faculty vs. US-born faculty and faculty with a prior international experience vs. faculty without an international experience. The outcomes of this study may help institutions of higher education enhance campus internationalization resources and diversity activities and provide faculty a rewarding workplace.
