Are students expected to study abroad?

It’s a student-college “fit” issue. Study abroad is so common at some colleges that students who don’t do it are ducks out of water. Some colleges only provide three years’s worth of housing (i.e. BC) in part as a way of nudging students to go abroad. If I were a student who knew I really didn’t want to go abroad, I"d avoid colleges where it’s popular/expected.
