Study Abroad

​I have never in my life done so much in as little as four weeks. My experiences in Fulda can be summarized as follows: reception in the castle and meeting the mayor, hiking in the Rhine Valley, visiting Nuremberg, Berlin, Würzburg, Weimar and the former East-West border, a lovely picnic with the women's club, cooking Spätzle in a small village, canoeing on the Fulda river, touring the parliament building, two quirky and incredible German teachers both named Thomas, the entire history of Germany packed into 12 class meetings, 50 international friends from all over the world, and an unforgettable host family with which I will always remain in contact.

Students in the Italian program took advantage of an array of study abroad choices this year. Several chose to spend a semester at John Cabot University, our partner program located in the beautiful Trastevere neighborhood in Rome. Many others joined the winter session in Siena, led by Dr. Saggese and Dr. Winkler. The Siena directors write:

'Siena Winter 2019 was an incredible experience for students and faculty alike. This exceptional group laughed, learned, and formed lifelong memories while trekking its way from as far south as Mount Vesuvius in Naples to as far north as the Canal Grande in Venice. Besides touring the peninsula and studying Italian at the Scuola Dante Alighieri in Siena, this group had a blast making pasta from scratch, socializing with local Italian students, and living the authentic Italian lifestyle with their Sienese host families."
