Enjoy the View! #HogsAbroad in Israel #BorenAwards #FundingFriday

Miztpe Ramon, Israel
"Don't forget to enjoy the view," says criminal justice major & Arabic minor Mattie Harris. Mattie won a Boren Scholarship to study in Israel during the 2018-19 academic year, and is studying intensive Arabic at Hebrew University's Rothberg International School in Jerusalem.

David L. Boren Scholarships and Fellowships are sponsored by the National Security Education Program, a major federal initiative designed to build a broader and more qualified pool of U.S. citizens with foreign language and international skills. Boren Awards provide U.S. undergraduate and graduate students with resources and encouragement to acquire language skills and experience in countries critical to the future security and stability of our nation. In exchange for funding, Boren Award recipients agree to work in the federal government for a period of at least one year. The Institute of International Education administers the awards on behalf of the National Security Education Program.

Undergraduate and graduate students interested in applying for the Boren Awards should visit www.borenawards.org and contact DeDe Long at dslong@uark.edu.
