    "Study abroad is a powerful educational tool... Overwhelming numbers of graduates who have studied abroad agree that the experience enhanced their interest in academic work, helped them acquire important career 'skill sets,' and continued for decades to influence their perspective on world events. Parents, students, and the broader public understand the educational value of study abroad. In one recent poll, for example, nearly 80 percent of respondents stated that the presence of international programs on campus would positively influence the choice of their child's college or university" (Global Competence and National Needs, The Comission on the Abrahm Lincoln Study Abroad Fellowship Program).
