Although students can get a good education in most subjects at their home universities, it isimportant to study abroad for some or part of one’s college education. Study abroad can give astudent competency in a new language, familiarity with a different culture, and a chance togrow in different ways.
One cannot deny that it is important to be bilingual or even multilingual in today’s fast-pacedworld. We have a global economy and communication by Internet and satellite TV means wemust be familiar with other languages in order to keep up with new developments.
Knowing another culture is also important today. Respect for other people and their traditionswill foster cooperation and peace. We should all do our part to make sure the world is safe forour children. It will only be safe if we understand and respect other people and their culture.
When we are out of our environment, we feel freer to experiment with different ways of doingthings. We are all individuals and we need time to be on our own, away from our comfortablenests. We may try different things and reject them. We might also adopt them. People canchange and it is easier to change when you are away from your family surroundings.
Study abroad can be enriching. Not only can we learn a new language, understand moreabout a different culture, but we can learn more about ourselves too. At the same time, ofcourse, we are getting an education in the formal sense.
