A Note of Thanks…

By Anna Mulé On September 5, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Chris | Orientation
After months of anticipation, preparation, and excitement, the Wagner College Class of 2016 has arrived! I hope each and every first-year student had memories that will last for a lifetime.  This year’s theme was YouBelong @ Wagner! Throughout the summer, my fellow Orientation Coordinator Allison Dufford and I have been engaging new students to connect with Wagner College through Social Media. Whether it was tweeting to us @Wagner2016, writing on the official Wagner College Class [...]

A Summer Farewell

By kevin.ross On August 28, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Trey | Chicago
As the summer draws to an end, it means that Wagner’s fall semester is right around the corner. Soon, all students will be back on campus returning to a daily routine that we grew so accustomed to before the summer. The last few days of summer serve as a great time to reflect on what transpired during the last three and half months.  When I look back, I realize that even though my stay in [...]

El ultimo/the last one!! See you later Peru!!

By vanessa.ayllon On August 28, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Vanessa | Peru
During my weeks in Peru I learned many things and made such great friends. I had such a good experience learning about my own culture on my own and have so much more to appreciate the wonderful landscape as well as the people. Through CIS abroad, I had many advantages and opportunities to enjoy certain areas I had never been to. My teachers did such a good job to make me understand clearly, and I [...]

Visit Millennium and Grant Park The famous bean of Chicago is a must see [...]

Farewell to Singapore

By Lynn Tay On August 21, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Lynn Tay
In less than eight hours, I will be on a plane on the way back home to California.  It is amazing how fast these seven weeks have passed by!  I have had the best summer of my life, full of new experiences, great memories, and new friends.  It will be strange going home and not being able to go out to dinner at a hawker center drinking sugar cane, some spicy dish, and sweating from [...]

Farewell to Summer Classes

By Lynn Tay On August 21, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Lynn Tay
This past Friday was the last day of my six-week study abroad program here in  Singapore.  I will be staying here until the 21st of August, but I had to say goodbye to my five other classmates from America who were here with me on my journey to Singapore.  It is amazing how a place can bring a lot of different people together to have an experience of a lifetime.  Over my six-week cultural course, [...]

Machu Picchu, part 2

By vanessa.ayllon On August 21, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Vanessa | Peru
Coming down from Wayna Picchu was a bit of a pain because hiking up for an hour and a half made my legs shaky coming down from there. Step by step, I made it back to the entrance, signed my name out, and on with the tour!! Off to see Machu Picchu! Some of the steps to get up to the main scene where all the famous pictures are taken were partially redone and not [...]

Machu Picchu, Aguas Calientes, and Wayna Picchu

By vanessa.ayllon On August 21, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Vanessa | Peru
Hey everyone! Probably the best highlight out of studying abroad was seeing one of the seven wonders in the world, Machu Picchu. Although it was sad for once not to spend Father’s Day with my father, I sure did appreciate more than ever the fact that without him I would not have had the opportunity to experience all that I have during my stay in Cuzco. To start my journey off to Machu Picchu the [...]

Who Has the Better Pizza: Chicago or NYC?

By kevin.ross On August 16, 2012 · 1 Comment · In Archive, Trey | Chicago
As a student living in New York City and having the opportunity to play baseball in Chicago, I had to settle the debate of which city has the best pizza.  These two cities have had an ongoing debate about who possesses the better tasting pizza.  New York City’s pizza is famous for its large, wide, and thin shape.  On the other hand, Chicago’s pizza is renowned for its tall crust, which encloses the large amounts [...]

A Day at the Ballpark

By kevin.ross On August 13, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Archive, Trey | Chicago
Unfortunately, my stay in Rockford was cut short because of the Epstein Barr virus, most commonly known as mononucleosis.  I was not able to recover from the illness while I was in Illinois, so with the advisement from my doctor, I traveled back home to State College, Pa.  Here, I was able to finally fight off the sickness and return to my usual self.  Although my stay in the Midwest was cut short, I still [...]
