Welcome to Our Blog

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

As anyone who has participated in this program will attest, there are no words or pictures that can begin to adequately capture the beauty of the scenery or hospitality of the people in Cape Town. Therefore, this blog is merely intended to provide an overview of the program and a glimpse at some amazing adventures and life-changing experiences had by the students and staff of this program who have traveled together as co-educators and companions on the journey. As Resident Director and Faculty Advisor since 2008 it has been a privilege and honor to accompany an incredible variety of wonderful UConn students to a place we have all come to know and love.

In peace, with hope, Marita McComiskey, PhD

Sharon looking forward to this once in a lifetime adventure



I am extremely excited for this amazing opportunity! Before the application process, traveling to South Africa seemed like a far away dream in the back of my mind. Now being accepted into the program, my nerves and inner anxiety have been revealed. Going on this trip has become reality and I am still trying to process it. But I know the pre-departure class will help prepare me for this study abroad experience, and I am looking forward to getting to know my fellow participants and sharing this once in a lifetime adventure together.
