| Abstract
|
:
|
I explored through this study the accounts of twelve Arab American and Saudi citizens about their experiences before, during, and after 9/11 and the meaning of these events in their lives. The conceptual framework, literature review, and qualitative interviews of participants were guided by five research questions: (a) What is the meaning of 9/11 to Arab Americans and Saudi students? (b) How does a political context or an event such as 9/11 affect the educational and social setting of Arab Americans and Saudi students studying in the United States? (c) How do Arab Americans and Saudi students perceive the events of 9/11? (d) How and to what extent did the 9/11 attacks affect Arab Americans who reside permanently in the United States and Saudi Arabian students who reside temporarily in the USA? (e) What adoption strategies are Arab Americans and Saudi students undertaking to overcome and avoid the hurdles, challenges and stereotypes that resulted from 9/11?
