Undergraduate Students,” the article
appears on page 23 and at
http://mydigimag.rrd.com/publication/?i=

the article offers three tips that universi-

neurs: offer classes in social entrepreneur-

networks. Prieto co-authored the editorial

ISSO
ISSO’s Brett Reichert took part in a con-
ference call on immigration reform with
President Barack Obama on Wednesday,
June 5. “I think I was invited due to my
work with advocacy, and my connection
with Georgia Association of International
Education. The President spoke for about
10 minutes. The call was about the need to
get immigration reform through Congress
this summer and to keep pressure on
Congress to do something, despite power-
ful groups and individuals bent on keep-
ing the status quo.” says Reichert.
