Global Scholars has been a very enlightening experience for me. From all the events online and a few in-person to keeping up with the news daily to all of the classes I probably wouldn't have taken otherwise and my spectacular trip to Cambodia and Vietnam. I've really enjoyed my classmates who have taught me so much and all of the people I've met or gotten to know a lot better through the program. I've made so many connections it's hard to count. Still, some really stood out to me, including the excellent mentors and guides on my trip, Le Ly Hayslip and her family and organization Global Village Foundation, Ms. Estrada and Ms. Robbins, and Ms. Diederich and Mr. Caragher. I really enjoyed making and eventually receiving a grant of $5,000 with my partner Ethan because both of us put a ton of heart and effort into that project, and it really paid off. This blog has also allowed me to take a deeper look than I usually would at some on and off-focus topics, which helped me become a better global citizen. I cannot think of any issues I have had along the way, and I believe that is due to excellent direction from all of the faculty contributing to the program and how engaged everyone was with their work. Global scholars has a great community and has made a significant impact on many people's lives. I have had a blast with it.
