Meet Emily Harris, Residence Life Coordinator at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. She is a proud GHE alumna from the 2019 cohort who shared how the relationships and support she found in GHE shaped her personal and professional growth.

Read more about Emily’s GHE experience:

“When reflecting on my time in the GHE program at UW-Madison, I am so thankful for the many opportunities I had to learn and grow as a professional, experience being a student at a large public university, but most importantly to further expand as a person. Through cultivating relationships with the other folks in my cohort, both inside and outside of the classroom, I was able to grow in my knowledge of self and the role I play in a global world. I will be forever indebted to my cohort mates, the other scholars in ELPA, and the faculty at UW Madison for helping me become the person I am today. In GHE you may come for a degree, but you also get an entire cohort of people supporting you, cheering for your success, and walking the journey with you. That support and care has been priceless. ”

Read more about Ya’s GHE experience:
“I came to the GHE program with several years of higher education work experience in China. The program broadened my understanding of the U.S. higher education landscape and gave me valuable insight into how American higher education institutions operate. Through the trainings, workshops, and seminars, I developed a deeper understanding of international student services, student engagement, and higher education practices in the U.S. The knowledge and experiences I gained through GHE have played an important role in shaping my career path and supporting my work in international higher education today.”
