Meredith Abroad This past summer forty people de- cided to see the Old World first hand. They began in a little town near Zurich, Switzerland. They had classes in the morning and were finished by about two o ' clock in the afternoon. Many of the students would catch the train and sight see on their own. There were so many beautiful sights they couldn ' t possibly see them all; but they tried. Next, the students headed for London. The students had five days in which to make their way to London. Some made stops at Paris, while others chose the French Riviera. The students then remained in London for five weeks — in a nunnery at that! Besides being in a nunnery, they were in Kensington Square, the home of Charles and Diana. Shopping was fun there with all the famous bou- tiques at their fingertips. Also, beautiful gardens were all around. The whole trip was fun, exciting, and worthwhile for all who went. After it was over, the students were much more knowledgeable about their cul- tures. There were two other Meredith Abroad trips, one to Germany and one to France. The Meredith Abroad Program gives students a chance to explore other countries while at the same time earning credit hours towards gradu- ation. Professors from different depart- ments go along to teach and to take in some sights as well. It is a learning ex- perience for all who participate. — Susan Howard 24 Student Life photo by Caroline Mata
