Reports from the California State University, the University of California, and the California community colleges consider their roles in the Pacific Rim region. The Pacific Rim includes all lands with at least a portion of their coastlines fronting on the Pacific Ocean. Of concern are: the need for changes in program offerings and exchange programs, the need for Pacific Rim specialists, the need for exchanges between scholars, the need for computerized information exchanges, and the need for Pacific Rim centers. Major recommendations of the California State University concern: internationalization of the curriculum, language and culture, internationalization of the business curriculum, student internships in Pacific Rim countries, teacher preparation for instruction about the Pacific Rim, foreign students from the Pacific Rim, and international food and agricultural development. Included are: an inventory of University of California programs related to Pacific Rim countries; examples of Pacific Rim area courses in University of California disciplines other than language and area studies; and education abroad centers and programs being developed by the University of California.
