Globally Competent Student

Is it important to be globally competent? why or why not?
     I guess it's kind of important to be globally competent because i think it could be a great benefit. the word i would use is good. i think it is good to be globally competent because of the ways it can improve your skills on communication, and how you view things and other cultures. However i don't think you need to be necessarily fluent in several other languages, if you wanna be or can be that's fantastic but in my opinion knowing enough of a foreign language to make out what people say and be able to respond enough to where they get the idea of what your saying it good enough to me.

do you agree that these are the only qualities in order to be globally competent? why or why not?
      No i don't think these are the only qualities in order to be globally competent, yes these qualities are very important and great, but i would think you need more that just 5 basic qualities to be globally competent.

if you would add or subtract "characteristics of the globally competent student," what would they be? why or why not?
          I would leave in the part about needing to know foreign language, but i would say you only need to be able to understand one, you don't have to be close to fluent in 5 other languages unless you just really want to be. i also don't think it's necessary to work overseas... again, if it's what you want then great, go for it. but i don' t see why you really need to work overseas.
