Ryan VanBuskirk 24' 2nd Place: IGHS College Essay Contest

I studied abroad in France for my spring semester in 23! Because this program is designed to teach French to international students, I was simultaneously able to learn from a French-native and professional, while also meeting and practicing the language with people from all over the world. All of my classes were in French and focused on strengthening my proficiency and knowledge of the culture.

Nicholas Mack's Peruvian Adventures

"This experience has amplified my desire to become an anthropologist. This might sound a bit biased; however, I believe anthropology is needed in the world today, with the constant growth of people and the changing of cultures. We only get one chance to make a difference, and with the state of the world, we need more anthropologists."
