My Time as a Global Scholar
This past year as a Global Scholar has been full of inspiration, challenges, and fun facts, as I have attended phenomenal GIP events, struggled to co-publish a short book, and learned more about the world around me. I am very thankful for all of the experiences I have had as a Global Scholar. I have become more aware about situations, conflicts, etc. that are going on in other countries or that affect the planet as a whole (@climate change). I must say, I did not have a great understanding of the amount of commitment, time, and energy that is required of each and every Global Scholar when I started this journey, but I do not regret having applied. Through the Poly GIP program, I have been able to travel across the world (to Nicaragua, Argentina, and the Dominican Republic) with my friends, and as a Global Scholar, I have been able to continue expanding my horizons while staying in Pasadena. As a result, I want to say a huge thank you to Mr. Caragher, Ms. Diederich, and Mr. Bracker
