"Students are immersed in all aspects of a different culture," he added, "from the way people live and work to the values they hold to the foods they eat--all valuable perspectives for surviving and thriving in today's global marketplace. They also learn the meaning and magic of teamwork; make a real and meaningful difference in their host community; and gain a competitive edge for any resume, or graduate or professional school application."
