Seeing the inside of their college on top of talking with their students made me realize our collegiate education systems were quite different. For one, their education goes up to an Associate&#8217;s. They also had a larger set of facilities; multiple cafeterias, a decent gym, a dance studio and a theatre. While our colleges are great, it takes usually a bigger university\/college to have that much. Also, most students really enjoy their education, but to get good use of a job it could give them, they ultimately would have to leave Ireland.<\/p>\n<p>After our tour, we had a discussion on personality and how it forms and what it is in one of their classrooms.
