Some of the scholarly essays focus on issues of health and wellbeing during the COVID crisis and what college educators can learn from those experiences to better equip them for handling such disruptions in the future. Other contributing authors focus on diversity of race and gender by exploring injustices as revealed in ethnic and minority literature and gender-focused literature. Some scholarly essays reveal how teaching foreign languages can foster a diversity consciousness in students and expose them to cultural experiences and cross-cultural communication of diverse people around the world. Some of the contributing authors use their agency to advocate for access for students who have experienced underrepresentation and to promote building an inclusive multicultural campus. Students with developed critical thinking skills, collaborative skills, and cultural intelligence will be prepared for leadership stateside and abroad.
