Abstract	Using definitions of the American Council on Education (2012) and Knight (2015) as guides, this article explores the internationalization of one urban community college. Twelve interviews--the president, board, and administrators--were held. While all acknowledged that the college had made progress toward the goal of internationalization, they identified various issues that may affect all community colleges in their quest to internationalize. We discuss these issues and provide recommendation for practitioners. (As Provided).
