Study Abroad Experiences

  • Raymond Numagami in Sapporo, Japan (Fall2008) "Every person's growth, challenges and experiences during Study Abroad are ultimately unique adventures for each of us to discover on our own."

  • Sarah "Kusho" Kakusho in Buenos Aires, Argentina (Fall 2008)  "A 156-day journey into the self, the world, and the unknown in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The challenge: rediscovering how life should be lived with no regrets."

  • Masako Yamamoto in Beijing, China (Fall 2008) "Challenges I encountered in China led me to change the question I asked myself at the beginning of my study abroad, "Why am I in China?" to "Given this great opportunity, what can I do in China as an SUA student?"

  • Natalia Dare in Quito, Ecuador (Fall 2009) "Although it's like being on a rollercoaster, I've been able to practice not only being myself, but also mustering up the inner strength to get over unexpected hurdles." 

  • Helga Helgerson in Quito, Ecuador (Spring 2010) "There would be no room to grow if I felt completely comfortable and had ease with everything I did. Each setback allows you to strengthen your own beliefs and gives you a better understanding of what you strive for in life, turning negativity into inspiration."
