T’lay Foulkes, O’Neill Sophomore, answers questions about her study abroad experience with the Civic Learning Center in Athens, Greece.
What is your favorite memory, story, or experience you had while participating in the program?
Getting to go different places throughout Greece and trying new things with my peers.
What advice would you give students who are hesitant about studying abroad or participating in the program?
That it’s an amazing experience to not only see the world and get and entirely different perspective but getting to know people that go with you in the program. I made so really great friendships that I wouldn’t have otherwise.
How has studying abroad, or the program in general, benefitted you as a person?
I think it broadened by view of the world in a way that it wasn’t before. Immersion into a different culture was enlightening and I took back so many valuable experiences.
