The perception of a permanent enrollment crisis in US postsecondary foreign language education has shaped our profession's image for an entire generation of educators. Over the past 30 years, this crisis rarely invited self-examination or inspired creativity. Instead, it was routinely attributed to external factors: shrinking budgets, unsympathetic administrators, disengaged students. This volume is refreshingly optimistic: After providing a nuanced picture of the complex enrollment situation and focusing on perceptions of language education among undergraduate students, the volume features an inspiring panorama of successful models that revitalized language programs at a wide range of institutions. The diversity of approaches to post-secondary language education in the United States featured in this volume highlights that there are no simple "one size fits all" solutions. To be transformational, initiatives need to be intimately calibrated to the evolving needs and desires of our institutions' most important stakeholder: the student.
