The study abroad program will be a month long trip to Seville, Spain in the summer of 2015. The class that will be taken there will be studying Islamic History in Spain, while staying at the University of Seville dormitories in the center of the city. While in Spain, there will also be one-day trips to Cordoba and Cadiz. The video I created demonstrates the environment I grew up in, and how Chicago's beauty has encouraged me to discover other wonders in the world through education. If given this honor, I will be the first female in my entire family to travel to Europe. As an aspiring teacher, this will be a great testimony to the future generation of children that I will be teaching, and hopefully, inspiring.
