QUOTES FROM RETURNING STUDENTS:

  • “This was an invaluable experience.  I not only learned in the classroom, but from the culture.”
  • “New Brunswick, though a close neighbor, offers a lot of culture.  While it’s close enough to go home in a couple of hours, it is a distinctly different country/region.  The Maritimes have their own music, accent, and traditions.”
  • “Befriending Canadians and seeing ‘Beautiful British Columbia’ allowed me a view into a unique North American culture.  Attending Simon Fraser University has brought considerable perspective to my life here in Maine as both a student and a citizen.”
