Jordan Cobb, Alumni Ambassador

WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CLASS WHILE ABROAD, AND WHY?
Museums. I enjoyed the exposure the class gave us to London, England. Additionally, It was the class with the most field trips, and it allowed me to gain access to many museums I didn't even know existed. It was a wonderful class with many thought-provoking topics and interactive projects to keep it interesting.

WHAT'S ONE STORY OR IMPORTANT ASPECT YOU ALWAYS SHARE ABOUT YOUR TIME ABROAD?
I always talk about how studying abroad helped me gain independence and confidence in doing things SOLO. While I loved doing activities in a group, I grew the most by doing things on my own. I challenged myself to try new things solo all the time and even solo traveled twice while I was abroad. It gave me a sense of accomplishment that I didn't know existed. I feel like people grow the most when they're put into situations where they're out of their comfort zone, and it's very rewarding when you realize the freedom and independence studying abroad can give you.
