Stephanie Köllinger – besser bekannt als «Vorsorge Steffi» – hat ursprünglich eine Ausbildung in der Gastronomie absolviert und danach als Sozialarbeiterin bei Pro Senectute gearbeitet. Während eines Sabbaticals mit dem Camper kam erstmals der Wunsch nach einer Selbständigkeit auf – zunächst als freiberufliche Autorin im Campingbereich. Als dies scheiterte, erkannte sie, dass es nachhaltiger ist, eigene Angebote zu entwickeln, anstatt auf Aufträge angewiesen zu sein. Die Idee für «Vorsorge Steffi» entstand direkt aus ihren Erfahrungen bei Pro Senectute, wo sie täglich sah, welche dramatischen Folgen unzureichende Altersvorsorge für Betroffene haben kann. Heute vermittelt sie unabhängiges Finanzwissen, insbesondere an Frauen, und hilft dabei, Altersarmut zu verhindern.

Constructing Student Mobility: How Universities Recruit Students and Shape Pathways between Berkeley and Seoul (MIT Press, 2023) challenges the popular image of the international student in the American imagination, an image of affluence, access, and privilege. In this provocative book, higher education scholar Stephanie Kim argues that universities -- not the students -- create the paths that allow students their international mobility. Focusing on universities in the United States and South Korea that aggressively grew their student pools in the aftermath of the Great Recession, Kim shows the lengths to which universities will go to expand enrollments as they draw from the same pool of top South Korean students. Using ethnographic research gathered over a ten-year period in which international admissions were impacted by the Great Recession, changes in US presidential administrations, and the COVID-19 pandemic, Constructing Student Mobility provides crucial insights into the purpose, effects, and future of student recruitment across the Pacific. Constructing Student Mobility received the Best Book Award from the Association for the Study of Higher Education Council on International Higher Education. Stephanie Kim is a scholar, educator, author, and practitioner in the field of comparative and international higher education. She teaches at Georgetown University, where she is an Associate Professor of the Practice and Faculty Director of Higher Education Administration in the School of Continuing Studies. She is also an affiliated faculty member of the Asian Studies Program in the School of Foreign Service. Leslie Hickman is a translator and writer.
