Abstract	This book provides pragmatic ideas and analyses from contributors with multicultural backgrounds and educational experiences, on how to implement multicultural education in college and university courses of study; and presents strategies for transforming both the curricula and the training of effective multicultural educators. Section 1 offer insights from their classroom experience and research in instructional strategies. The essays in Section 2 affirm how far-reaching and multifaceted multicultural education is, from how many perspectives it can be studied, and on how many levels it impacts curriculum. Section 3 contains papers that examine the creation of the climate for change. Chapters and their authors are the following: "Using Humor to Promote Multicultural Understanding" (Samuel Betances); "The Point of the Story" (Joan Livingston-Webber); "Teaching Education Majors How to Foster Resiliency in Their Students" (Kimberly A.
