Multilingualism in Higher Education - Unique Lessons from the North-West University in South Africa

Introducing multilingualism into an institution of higher learning that previously served only one or two language groups is challenging, particularly in multiracial, multilingual societies such as South Africa. This book documents the milestones achieved by North-West University in its determination to establish a multilingual university community in democratic South Africa, providing a model for institutions worldwide that are facing similar challenges.
