Laura shared why her study abroad experience was so meaningful to her:  “I love the class because it allowed me to step outside my comfort zone and learn through interaction.  I am so glad I had the opportunity to perform these dances in the traditional dresses and share the knowledge I gained throughout the semester.”  Being able to perform the traditional dances for an audience “was such a great experience.”

Stop in to the Office of Global Education to learn about your study abroad options.  Who knows, there may just be a meaningful adventure waiting for you!
