Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: [By the end of the semester, students should have] a greater understanding and tolerance of cultural differences that can be applicable anywhere . . . [Students should be] willing to consider other cultural paradigms versus the traditional Western one ... and [they should] see that other ways of thinking about things is okay,... not necessarily wrong and not necessarily inferior . . . Some of these ancient cultures have been around for centuries, so whatever their beliefs and their practices are must have some kind of merit because they have survived . . . They're not extinct, so they didn't all die off. So something was right. So not to push aside some of those practices and beliefs so quickly, but to have a little bit more of an open mind, if nothing else even about a specific culture just hopefully a greater receptiveness and tolerance to different viewpoints that might work for somebody.
