Abstract | Ten programs at California colleges and universities that focus on the Pacific Rim and Basin are discussed, along with the state's needs for additional activities regarding this area, and five statewide policy issues raised by three California Postsecondary Education Commission reports. The Pacific Rim includes those lands with actual coastline on the ocean or subsections of the ocean such as the South China Sea. Ten Pacific Rim programs in California higher education are described, including: the California International Studies Project, Oxnard World Trade Institute, Stanford International Development Education Committee, and the Monterey Institute of International Studies. Three reports of the Commission are reviewed in terms of the state's need for academic resources. Areas of need include: specialists in the Pacific Rim, interchange among scholars, changes in curricular programs, exchange programs and instruction abroad, exchange of information via improved computer systems, and a Pacific Rim studies center. Additional issues of concern include foreign language competence. Appended is the text of Assembly Concurrent Resolution 82 (1986) concerning international studies. (SW) |
