Happy Saint Patrick's Day!


The Study Abroad Office celebrated Saint Patrick's Day by promoting Study Abroad in Ireland! SMU has affiliated study abroad programs in Dublin, Galway, and Nothern Ireland. There is also the opportunity to student teach and study theater in Ireland through the London Program's Dublin Theatre Workshop



Ari Williams and Rhea Fosco helped promote study abroad in Ireland by sharing their study abroad stories at Tuesday's information session. Both students attended HECUA's Democracy & Social Change in Northern Ireland during the spring semester of 2012. You can see Ari's blog from Ireland here
