8.UniversitiesBranchOut

Fromtheirstudentbodiestotheirresearchpractices,universitiesarebecomingmoreglobal.

ByRichardLevin

Asneverbeforeintheirlonghistory,universitieshavebecomeinstrumentsofnationalcompetitionaswellasinstrumentsofpeace.Theyarethelocusofthescientificdiscoveriesthatmoveeconomiesforward,andtheprimarymeansofeducatingthetalentrequiredtoobtainandmaintaincompetitiveadvantage.Butatthesametime,theopeningofnationalborderstotheflowofgoods,services,informationandespeciallypeoplehasmadeuniversitiesapowerfulforceforglobalintegration,mutualunderstandingandgeopoliticalstability.

Inresponsetothesameforcesthathavepropelledtheworldeconomy,universitieshavebecomemoreself-consciouslyglobal:seekingstudentsfromaroundtheworldwhorepresenttheentirespectrumofculturesandvalues,sendingtheirownstudentsabroadtopreparethemforglobalcareers,offeringcoursesofstudythataddressthechallengesofaninterconnectedworldandcollaborativeresearchprogramstoadvancescienceforthebenefitofallhumanity.

Oftheforcesshapinghighereducationnoneismoresweepingthanthemovementacrossborders.Overthepastthreedecadesthenumberofstudentsleavinghomeeachyeartostudyabroadhasgrownatanannualrateof3.9percent,from800,000in1975to2.5millionin2004.Mosttravelfromonedevelopednationtoanother,buttheflowfromdevelopingtodevelopedcountriesisgrowingrapidly.Thereverseflow,fromdevelopedtodevelopingcountries,isontherise,too.Todayforeignstudentsearn30percentofthedoctoraldegreesawardedintheUnitedStatesand38percentofthoseintheUnitedKingdom.Andthenumbercrossingbordersforundergraduatestudyisgrowingaswell,to8percentoftheundergraduatesatAmerica'sIvyLeagueinstitutionsand10percentofallundergraduatesintheU.K.IntheUnitedStates,20percentofnewlyhiredprofessorsinscienceandengineeringareforeign-born,andinChinathevastmajorityofnewlyhiredfacultyatthetopresearchuniversitiesreceivedtheirgraduateeducationabroad.

Whataretheconsequencesoftheseshiftsamongthehighlyeducated?Considerthis:onthenightaftertheattacksontheWorldTradeCenter,JewishstudentsatYale(mostofthemAmerican)cametogetherwithMuslimstudents(mostofthemforeign)toorganizeavigil.Orthis:everyyearthestudent-runForumforAmerican/ChineseExchangeatStanford(FACES)organizesconferencesinbothChinaandatStanford,bringingtogetherstudentsfrombothcountrieschosentodiscussSino-U.S.relationswithleadingexperts.Theleadersofstudentgroupspromotinginternationalcollaborationareintouchwitheachotherdailyviae-mailandSkype,technologiesthatnotonlyfacilitatecooperativeprojectsbutalsoincreasethelikelihoodofcreatinglifelongpersonalties.Thebottomline:theflowofstudentsacrossnationalborders--studentswhoaredisproportionatelylikelytobecomeleadersintheirhomecountries--enablesdeepermutualunderstanding,toleranceandglobalintegration.

Aspartofthis,universitiesareencouragingstudentstospendsomeoftheirundergraduateexperienceinanothercountry.InEurope,morethan140,000studentsparticipateintheErasmusprogrameachyear,takingcoursesforcreditinoneof2,200participatinginstitutionsacrossthecontinent.AndintheUnitedStates,institutionsaremobilizingtheiralumnitohelpplacestudentsinsummerinternshipsabroadtopreparethemforglobalcareers.YaleandHarvardhaveledtheway,off

IntheUnitedStatesthemodernenvironmentalmovementisrootedina19th-centuryNewEnglandphilosophicalmovementcalledtranscendentalism(超驗(yàn)主義),whoseleadersincludedthepoetandessayistRalphWaldoEmersonandthenaturalistandauthorHenryDavidThoreau.Intheirwritings,bothmenexpressedareverenceforthenaturalworld,believingthathumansandnaturesharedadivinespirit.Emersonassertedthatnaturewaseternalandcapableofrecoveringfrommistreatmentatthehandsofhumans.Thoreau,moreprotectiveandpessimistic,hasbeenquotedassaying,"ThankGod,mencannotyetflyandlaywastetheskyaswellastheearth."

AlthoughEmersonandThoreauwroteeloquentlyaboutthevalueofnatureanditsspiritualimportancetohumans,neitherofthemundertookasystematicanalysisoftheeffectsthathumanshaveontheirenvironment.Thattaskwasleftfor19th-centuryAmericandiplomatGeorgePerkinsMarsh.In1864MarshpublishedManandNature;or,PhysicalGeographyasModifiedbyHumanAction,consideredthefirstbooktodemonstratethathumanactivitycouldcausedramaticandirreversibledamagetoEarth.Marshexplainedhowsomeagriculturalpracticeshadledtodeforestation(采伐森林),lossofwetlands,desertification(theprocessoflandbecomingdesert),speciesextinction,andchangesinweatherpatterns.
