Study Abroad
The study abroad fair brought to my attention many new learning opportunities that are available to us students. The program that stood out most to me was the CLEE Chile program. In this program you travel to Santiago, Chile for either a semester or for a full year. In this specific program, it focuses on the liberal arts, with subject areas from sociology, to political science, psychology, and more. You will receive 15-18 credits a semester you are on the trip. You will be living with a host family from Chile with the homestay housing option. Several sample courses are Social History of Chile and Native Art and Culture of the Americas. During the trip you get to experience Chile and see what it offers as you see how it differs from life in the United States. In part of the trip there are two weekend study trips which bring you to one of the most visually stunning places in northern Chile and the other to historical southern Chile. Most importantly you will get to experience the culture that Chile has to offer as you travel and do various activities.
This program stood out to me more than the others because of the opportunities I could gain from the trip and because i have family that were born in Chile, so I want to learn about the culture they were brought up in. This program offers subjects areas that could directly enhance my learning and help me reach my goal of one day being in law enforcement. They offer studies that deal with Law/Legal Studies as well as Sociology studies. Both of which are major components of me one day reaching my goal. It would definitely be to my advantage to learn how different countries and cultures deal with legal matters. I would learn lessons that I could use down the road. The other reason is more personal, my mother was born in Chile and lived there until she was 13 years old. It would interesting to learn how life is like there now and be able to come back and share my experiences with my mother. I would be able to see how
