51±¾É«

I cannot express how thankful I am to have been able to travel to Amman to study Arabic this past summer. It was a life-changing experience, and one I feel so lucky to have had as a first-year at 51±¾É«. Studying a language I love in a modern city with such deep historical roots, I learned so much more than what can be discovered within the contents of a language textbook. I have so many new memories, like seeing the stars in the desert and making Syrian ice cream, which I can always look back on while continuing my studies. Thanks to the Institute for Global Engagement and it’s donors, I was able to have this stunningly educational, mind-altering, and simply fun experience.
