Abstract	Jan Tucker was a man of firm convictions and enormous energy. He was a serious scholar, a powerful leader, a generous mentor, and from all accounts, a force to be reckoned with. The author never met Jan, but a big part of the reason she came to Florida International University (FIU), was because of his legacy. Jan Tucker was a professor of social studies education at FIU from first the year the university opened its doors to students, in 1972, until his untimely death in 1997. It is a deep honor for the author to give the Jan L. Tucker Memorial Lecture, which is presented in this article. The author begins with a snippet or two of Jan Tucker's work, moves into her own global learning story, transition to an example of university-wide global learning, and then move into equity through global learning, with strategies for social studies educators and students.
