Hola a todos! Finals are next week and our international students are scrambling to prepare.  While the students have been busy traveling around Ecuador every weekend during the first part of the semester, we have a free weekend coming up so they can spend their time preparing for their exams.  All of their hard work will be well worth it; after exams we are taking a 5-day jungle cruise!   

I am so excited about this trip because it is a new one for us.  There are very few places in the world to see the kind of vast array of plant and animal life that the Amazon has to offer. What a great way to celebrate finishing the end of the first cycle.  Monkeys and dolphins and birds…O’ my!    

After the stress of finals is over and we return from our Amazon exploration, I will fill you in on our incredible adventure.  
 

Until next time, 

Katie Heird

International Programs Coordinator.
