Mickey Slind became an “accidental” study abroad professional when after raising a family she took a job in the Registrar’s Office at Hamline University in 1981. Prior to this she had never studied abroad and did not even own a passport.
Her long and productive career helping and mentoring study abroad advisers is something she is most proud of. Mickey was always on the cutting edge of the field—one of the first to champion short term programming and a pioneer in the quest for women’s equality in what was then a field dominated by males in campus leadership positions (“it is changing for the better now,” she said). Mickey also had a leadership role in creating workshops for underrepresented students including introducing programming for the LGBT community and, in 1992, served on the original NAFSA committee to integrate health and safety into study abroad professional development.
While Mickey officially retired twelve years ago she remains active as a consultant and leader imparting her wisdom, experience and expertise to a new generation of students, advisers and field representatives.
She is truly a dream merchant and a shining star in our field.

A long summer's adventure traveling in Europe after college led Bill Gertz to a career in education abroad. He has brought his passions for travel and writing together over the years to promote the value of education abroad beginning with his work at CIEE in 1976 and continuing to the present at AIFS where he is President and CEO. He points out that over the years, most of the issues in our field remain the same, but the people and approaches change. He challenges the listener to remain true to our ultimate goal of achieving world peace through international travel and education abroad, and reminds us all that we must continue the journey together to expand opportunities for all students. Bill is interviewed by his friend and former colleague, Mickey Slind, at The Forum's 12th Annual Conference in Atlanta.
