Study Abroad Information Meeting for Engineering Students

Yes -- Engineering majors can study abroad! Some students take 
courses in their major, while others take a break from the major and 
concentrate on fulfilling distribution requirements or exploring 
other areas of interest. Come to this meeting to find out about some 
of the study abroad options available to engineering students.

abroad, and on choosing a program in Latin America!


International Opportunities Fair -- A Rousing Success
As always, Yalies very much impressed the program reps who attended 
last Friday's International Opportunities Fair.  The reps with whom I 
spoke throughout the afternoon were pleased to see so much interest 
in study abroad - and were impressed with the thoughtful questions 
asked by all who visited their tables.  The final attendance tally 
showed that 693 Yale students packed the Lanman Center during the two 
hour fair!
