What our Students Say . . . 

 

The whole experience was the highlight of my educational career.  I want to see all of France.  The country is so large, the people are fantastic.  This has only wet my appetite to get back there.  I feel so empowered and the world seems smaller.  Life is so short and there is so much to see.  Don't question it, do it.

Alexander Hutchins, France, Institut de Touraine

 

Be very open minded and willing to try new things.  And always, always, always remember that the native people have a different view on the world than you do.

Matthew Meyer, China, Chinese Agriculture and Management

 

There are benefits and disadvantages in every culture.  Our culture is not superior or the "right" way; different is different, not bad.  The experience opens your mind in ways you cannot anticipate.  It is learning in a way you cannot experience any other way.  You have to just go for it because you won't regret it.

Cypriane McNulty, Mexico, WISE Mexico
