“If you look at images of study abroad,” says Marilyn Jackson, “from Gidget Goes to Rome to Mary Kate and Ashley, the image is young white women. You can hang all the study abroad posters you want but if a person thinks that study abroad is not for them, they won’t see them.” Sending comfortably-off white kids overseas to acquire some cosmopolitan polish is about the last thing that study abroad professionals aim to be doing. Still, the uncomfortable fact is that relatively few minorities -- in particular Hispanics and blacks –- do study overseas.
