“Greece? Why Greece? Why would you ever want to go study in a failed nation like Greece?,” my parents asked me. I was taken aback. Little did they know that my interest in Greek society and culture would motivate me to apply to the Harvard Study Abroad program.

llman The study abroad trip to Australia created an experience that could never be recreated in the class room. For some of the people the trip was a once in a life time opportunity.
