Abstract
Few undergraduate classes match the potential of college algebra to internationalize the university experience. The complexity and variability of the world’s most pressing issues-of health outcomes, income, access to education, access to clean water-mean that a great deal of influential information is conveyed mathematically, usually as tables of values and graphs.
