While I may not technically be a student, the great thing about being a faculty member is that you’re also always a student. So I’m travelling for the first time to Cape Town, South Africa, this coming Monday, to look at several study abroad programs there, where students like yourself would actually go from Penn State. I’ll be on the University of Cape Town campus for a week, and then off to Stellenbosch, not far away, but there’s a separate university there where you can also study for a semester or year. So if you have any interest in going to S. Africa, keep an eye on this blog for my photos and experiences there.
Oh, and if any of you are reading this and are actually in Cape Town, let me know! Maybe we can meet up and I can hear about how your experience there!
Have fun abroad! Keep us posted on all your adventures.
