Global Initiatives
During the fall, students participated in international term-long programs in Japan and the United Kingdom. Here is what Catherine, who traveled to Stratford to study literature, history, and theater with five of her peers and English instructor Erica Lazure, had to say about her experience: "Perhaps the experience that I hold dearest was the opportunity to work with Dr. Haughton, an Art History teacher from an all-girls school in Wales.
Not only was it interesting to have a teacher from outside of Exeter, but I also truly found her class life-changing. Exeter does not offer art history, and because of that, I had never studied the subject or frankly given much thought to it. But I quickly discovered my passion for the subject within our first few meetings. I had already planned to major in history in college, but this opened my eyes to another side of the subject that I hadn’t considered."
Life-changing opportunities supported by gifts to The Exeter Fund's Global Initiatives designation shape our students, like Catherine, as individuals and as global citizens. Read on to learn about some of the adventures that Exonians are embarking on in 2023!
