The story of a Midwestern university’s extensive engagement with nations and people around the globe, in words and pictures.Indiana University’s administration, faculty, and staff believe that an international reach is a central part of the teaching and research identity of a great university. From "summer tramps" led by faculty in the later 1800s, to providing support to a struggling German higher education system devastated by World War II, to partnering with Kenyan medical institutions and collaborating with Ukrainian parliamentarians, IU has participated in a diverse range of international opportunities.What connects these seemingly disparate efforts is their reciprocal nature. IU’s international activities have benefited countless individuals while also providing opportunities for the intellectual development of faculty and students. This commitment to international engagement continues into Indiana University’s third century, with the launch of Gateway offices in economically and culturally dynamic parts of the world such as China, India, Germany, and Mexico. This book takes a journey around the world with Indiana University, from Pakistan to Poland to Palestine, and shares stories of lives changed.
