We were introduced to the technical side of forestry practices and a tourism/wildlife guide program we do not have in out curriculum. The Swedish history has led their forestry management in a direction I would never imagine working in the US but has p..."

AbbyEck11 Stephen F. Austin State University
"It was absolutely worthwhile. I had a blast being immersed in the culture and not traveling like a tourist.

Sarah B Stephen F. Austin State University
"I learned just how frustrating ELL students must feel when entering into a classroom. I was put in their shoes and found it difficult to communicate and understand. However, with time I was able to communicate with signals and pictures which is also a tool ELL students use. Overall, this experience was definitely worthwhile. Eve..."
Brittany W Stephen F. Austin State University
"Going to Brazil and Argentina was one of the most eye opening experiences I've ever had. Not only do you learn about the culture, but you get to be immersed in it, and by the end of it you understand why other conservation methods haven't worked, because they didn't work with the people. Also this trip is fun, yes everyone event..."

"My experience abroad was absolutely worthwhile! I learned so much! I learned how different other cultures can be. The trip also opened my eyes to how hard it is to communicate with those who do not speak your language and how frustrating it can be. This opened my eyes to how frustrated many ELL students are in schools. "
A student Stephen F. Austin State University

Traveling abroad opened my eyes to the amazing world outside of my town and the United States. I experienced what it felt like to be in a brand new place and not know how to speak the ..."
