Got questions about France? Just want a free croissant? Both are perfectly acceptable reasons to stop by. 🥐🇫🇷

Dr. Kyra Sanchez-Clapper will be hanging out in the VLOW on October 16 from 12 to 1 PM to talk all things France Maymester, including some very good news: financial aid is available!

Come ask about the itinerary, college credit, cost, financial aid, or whatever else you want to know. Or come for the free croissant and accidentally learn something about France while you’re there. We’re not picky. 😂

📅 October 16
🕛 12 to 1 PM
📍 VLOW
🥐 FREE CROISSANTS

Croissants will not be as large as pictured. You’ll have to go to France for that. 😉🇫🇷

Meet AZ: future educator, world traveler in the making, and one of our Global Studies Student Ambassadors. 🌎

Azariah Busby is from Rutherford, Tennessee, and studies Special Education Intervention K-8 at Bethel University. Around campus, you’ll also find AZ serving as STEA President, a Resident Assistant, and one of our Global Studies Student Ambassadors. 💜

One of the biggest things travel has taught AZ is to keep perspective, seize the day, and enjoy life even when circumstances get hard. And what is AZ most excited about with Global Studies? “Meeting other people from different cultures and making memories of a lifetime.”

We think that’s a pretty good reason to keep seeing the world. 😎
