How and why did you select this engagement? What skills or
experiences do you hope to gain from it?
My mother did a different SEA Semester program in 1989, and hasn't stopped talking
about it since. I knew I wanted to travel for classes in college, so I was thinking about
some different options, and SEA was always on my mind. I enjoyed the oceanography
classes I've taken, and I have a fair amount of experience boating, so when I heard about
this program I was really excited. I hope to get a lot of experience with intensive sailing
and oceanography research, both of which I've been looking for for a long time. From
what I've heard from many alumni, being a part of SEA Semester is one of the greatest
experiences of their lives, and I look forward to researching the global oceans while
being part of a close-knit community of peers.
