Study Abroad





Not only did I attend the Study Abroad Fair to get some extra credit points, I also went because I have a strong love and desire to travel. The fair offered many tables that provided useful information and aesthetically pleasing pamphlets. I visited the tables for Australia, Italy, and Cameroon and I was impressed by what all of them had to offer. Both Australia and Italy offered amazing learning and  sight seeing opportunities but Cameroon offered something that no other table in that room could, the opportunity to make a difference. On the trip we would be volunteering for the Makah Water for All Foundation by building a pump well to provide the people of Cameroon safe drinking water. We would also be interacting with children and teaching them things that back at home we take for granted. Which is why I strongly believe that there are somethings in this world that you can't learn by sitting in a lecture hall.
