When was the last time you have been to Spain?
- March 2012.
What do you enjoy most about Spain?
- The culture, the people, the opportunity to learn about its history and tradition.
What do you think are the advantages of Spain as a destination for American students?
- A visit to Spain would compliment the Spanish language instruction many students had in high school or college. Spanish history and culture will truly provide students with an intercultural experience they will not forget.
Could you describe the Study Abroad programs your university has with Spain?
- Xavier University currently works with Study Abroad Provider programs that allow students to study in a variety of cities in Spain.
How satisfied are, in general, American students going/studying in Spain?
- Am an not satisfied with the number of Xavier students in Spain. I hope to establish direct connections with Spanish Universities for academic collaboration in the areas of student, faculty and cultural exchange. We truly want to have students from Spain on Xavier’s campus and vice versa, and to promote university to university projects.
