Student Stories: International Students

“I’ve become more cautious about viewing the experiences of others. I now prioritize, above everything, seeing the world through their perspective.”

“As a senior, I’m confident enough to say I am a global citizen, and I owe it all to the education that was provided to me within a diverse setting.”

“Embrace the experience and be prepared to learn.”

“I found myself at Mount Holyoke. I learned self-reliance in a foreign country. I realized I have control over my life. I need to be responsible for it.”

“As an international student from a small country, I am constantly learning so much more about different cultures through the people I interact with here.”

“Interacting with international students gives me a broader perspective of the world outside Pakistan, the world that does not exist on news channels.”

”Mount Holyoke is indeed the homiest home away from home.”

In her pursuit of peace studies, Julia (Juli) Kellerbauer has thrown herself into nearly every global learning opportunity.
