The 2020 Associated Students Incorporated (ASI) Elections are underway, but the road to victory for candidates has been an uphill battle as cyber campaigning has become the new norm. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, candidates have marketed themselves through various social media platforms and Zoom meetings.

Studying abroad made possible

January 29, 2020 by Expressions Submissions 7,105 Comments

South Africa is a country that is still transitioning from decades of segregation. Although apartheid may have ended over 20 years ago, the feeling of division is still there. I was curious to know how racism affected people in this climate of change and how their experiences compared to my own. My research has provided this understanding. The extensive research commitment and in-depth experience I gained on this study abroad trip have helped me in building my resume and will enhance employment opportunities. I believe that conducting research on a topic that is … [Read more...] about Studying abroad made possible
