THE STUDENT-ATHLETE
EXPERIENCE
“Within this trip, we were able to explore the
rich culture and history of each of the countries
visited, while also learning about how sports can
help the development of a country. It was great
that we were able to learn everything, while also
not missing out on anything these countries had
to offer.”

“I never want to take my
education for granted, but
use it for the good of others.
I know the education and the
incredible experience we have
gained from this class will not
stop here.”

“This study abroad program taught me the
importance of teaching peace through the game.
It’s amazing how blessed we are at Virginia
Tech and how we should value our education,
resources and abilities. Thank you to all the
donors, staff, and Virginia Tech for making this
experience possible.”
