Summer 2018 Participant
My favorite part of this program was being able to experience literary locations firsthand: visiting Castle Howard, the Moors in York, the untidy and wild mountains of the Scottish highlands. You can't really understand how amazing it all feels or where it all comes from until you are there in the middle of it all.

Elsa Marie Bernauer, Summer 2017 Participant
I learned that this program helps create bonds between students and faculty, but it also encourages you to learn more about yourself. In the short amount of time that we were abroad, I discovered new things about myself that I only would have found by traveling abroad.

Summer 2017 Participant
Be wary of seagulls. But in all seriousness, don't be afraid to go outside your comfort zone while traveling abroad. Try haggis, climb Arthur's Seat, or even go to the Globe Theatre and watch Twelfth Night where it was originally shown. These are the once in a lifetime opportunities, and you don't want to miss it simply because it's more comfortable to relax in your room watching netflix.
