Event Details

The idea behind this session is to widen the discussion about the impact of study away, and reflect on how we can better connect study away experiences to a student’s educational experience on our campus. Come hear from two seniors, Daisy Alcantar (Sociology major and Political Science minor, studied away in Chile) and Joe Harrington (Geography, Environmental Studies, and Asian Studies triple major, studied away in Taiwan), whose study away experiences have influenced their capstone and senior projects. Join the three faculty who worked with those students and many others, Olga Gonzalez (Anthropology), Erika Busse-Cárdenas (Sociology), and I-Chun Catherine Chang (Geography), will present with Shanti Freitas (Center for Study Away) to discuss how they support students to build on their learning from study away. All faculty and staff are welcome.  Lunch will be provided.
