Many students who study abroad wish to continue their exploration of international cultures when they return home. Students are encouraged to meet visitors from all over the world through the International Student Club, to celebrate the range of cultures represented at UD through the annual International Festival, and to attend any of the international speaker forums offered throughout the year. Program alumni are also encouraged to serve as peer advisors for students considering a study abroad program and to participate in the annual Study Abroad Fair. Be sure to enter your study abroad pictures in the annual Alumni Photo Contest. The contest is held during the Study Abroad Reunion each September.
Students gather for an evening to share memories, stories of adventure, and great photos.
Selected photos will be used for the web page, study abroad publications, the annual postcard, and the student slide show. Cover photograph winners were Kelli Johnson and Genylynn Bardon. Inside photos were provided by Dr. David Ahern, Kate Peatridge, Dr. Faiza Shereen, Brian Kelly, Dr. Jeff Griffin, Kelly West, Lisa Rechtsteiner, Amy Vukcevic, Katie McCrory, and Danielle Marten. Morocco photographs were provided by Deborah McCarty Smith of the UD Publications Office. Program Assistant Patti Procuniar and Coordinator Mary Caffrey are more than happy to assist you with your planning or to refer you to a study abroad alum who can discuss the program from a student's point of view.
