Historic landmarks, making new friends, and comparing ideas and opinions during study abroad in Ireland.<\/strong> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

– Antoinette Barnes, SPC Student, Ireland Program, May 2019 <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traveling to Ireland was incredible. I got to see new things, try new dishes and meet lots of great new people. My favorite part of the trip was making friends from all over Europe, as well as listening to all of their ideas and opinions, not only on the political topics of their country but also those of America. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really enjoyed Dublin. The reason I liked this city so much is because I was able to meet lots of police officers and talk to them. I even got a personal tour of a station and was given a medal with the insignia of the station. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that experience, I met many other police officers in other cities from both northern and southern Ireland. It was a truly amazing experience seeing not only how the police officers worked with the public but also how they interacted with the homeless and the people who work in communities such as the city of Londonderry\/Derry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also got the chance to see old castles as well as an amazing fort\/wall in Londonderry\/Derry. Another incredible experience was visiting the Titanic Museum where I got to see the artifacts from the ship that sank on April 15th 1912, (exactly 86 years before I was born). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The study abroad program was a once in a lifetime experience and I am so grateful to have been able to visit Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
