Office of Study Abroad Summer Hours. As the semester winds down, we at the Office of Study
Abroad want to wish everyone good luck on your finals! On Monday, May 14 our
office hours will change to 8am-4:30pm Monday through Friday for the summer, so
if you need anything, we’ll still be here! Have a great summer break! And,
don’t forget, summer is a fantastic time to start thinking about future study
abroad plans. ;)
Exchange Student Pals Program. Want to get involved with international exchange
students on our campus this fall? Become a pal to a new incoming exchange
student for the semester or year! We’ll be sending out the Pals information
soon so STAY TUNED!
TEXT India Program May 1. If you're interested in going to India with The TEXT
Program in summer 2013 and/or if you want to learn about this oral history
project documenting the Tibetan people living in exile India, then you'll want
to be in Giffels Auditorium on Tuesday, May 1 at 7:00 p.m. to watch a 30-minute
documentary by one of the TEXT students, Bryan Campbell, called "Abroad
Horizon!" The film chronicles the experience of two of the students who
participated on last summer’s program. Hope to see you there!

food, cultural trivia (with prizes!) and fun on the lawn of the Office of Study
Abroad (722 W. Maple) on Thursday, May 3rd from 2-4pm!! This is also a great
