double major in math and Spanish. “There was just no way I could pass that up,” Pfaff said. “Math and Spanish? That’s who I am!” Every student has a different reason for wanting to study away. And for every one of those students, and every one of those reasons, PLU makes it easy.

Parrot Trust—didn’t seem at all interested in making an appearance. With the pull of a rope, Goodall released the enclosure’s trap door, offering the birds the freedom they had been denied for three years. For the love of birds “Let’s face it; she (Goodall) attracts a crowd,” Bergman chuckles as he reviews photos from the month-long trip he and PLU English major Nevis Granum ’14 took to Africa this summer, thanks to funding from Wang Center and Kelmer Roe research grants. http://www.youtube.com/watch

And what about you? Has the learning of a language somehow surprised and changed your life? Perhaps learning a language changed the way you understood your own past, culture, or ideas.

And most importantly I have been able to share my experience with prospective students and their families as well as with current students through my campus positions. Being a part of ASPLU, as a senator, also helped me learn about the inter working of the university while building connections. Studying away in Freiburg, Germany was life changing as it allowed me to understand what being a global citizen really meant; I was able to build on my
