Social Class and World Campuses. Do you want to write a blog post?

Will Barratt, Ph.D.
Global Adventurer

This is an appeal for people from around the world to write blog posts. 

When reviewing the statistics for this blog for the past week I noticed there was a wide geographic range of readership.  While I have experience in higher education in a few countries besides the US, I don't feel well informed enough to comment on what happens sociologically and psychologically on campus.  For example, I currently live in Kuala Lumpur that has a British post-colonial educational system. I can see the British system being replicated here, whether or not it fits the local needs. Not surprisingly class systems are reinforced here through public and private education. Note that here class and ethnicity/national origin are complexly intertwined. And it needs someone more familiar with these systems than I am to write cogently about it.

If you have some insights, comments, personal experiences then please consider writing them for this blog.  I will try to do readability editing that you can check and that is all. I respect all Englishes.
