Support Study Abroad
We live in an age of globalization. Our students need experiences to learn about the different cultures in the world in order to succeed in their careers. A priority of the Campaign for Nebraska is to provide students with international experiences that will prepare them to live and work in an increasingly connected world.
Unfortunately, cost is cited as the most critical restraint by students as to why they do not participate in study abroad opportunities. Targeted scholarship support for global education will facilitate the college's efforts to create future global leaders.
