Stephanie Lea Dwiggins, Spring Break 2016 Participant
My favorite part of the program was our informational interview that each student in the course completed while we were abroad. I chose to interview the head of the Music, Mind, and Brain post - graduate program at Goldsmiths College of London. It was an amazing experience to speak her about the program, her career, as well as my aspirations. The cultural aspect of the program was also a very valuable experience. For ten days, I was completely surrounded by a different culture, something that many American college students haven't experienced. It allowed me to meet so many new and wonderful people, see so many incredible things, and learn important lessons, about culture and travel abroad.

My favorite part of this program was being able to meet with companies. My favorite was Facebook! I loved how they took us on a tour of the office. I liked how there was a panel of employees that we could talk to. They told us all about their experiences abroad and how they ended up there. I also really liked how we had so much free time to go exploring!

Spring Break 2017 Participant
I found interacting with the locals to be the most rewarding. After meeting people and making small talk, they never hesitated to begin discussing politics or other things about America which they wished to learn about. Additionally, I became much more educated on Brexit. Hearing the views of Europeans on both their national issues, but also on political situations in America, was truly an eye-opening experience.
