UHM International Education Annual Report 2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION 2018-2019 OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL AND EXCHANGE PROGRAMS Cover Photos: 1. Michelle Au is the winner of the Mānoa International Education Week 2019 Photo Contest, Global Classroom category: Roadblock – “The Faculty-Sponsored study abroad trip to Balule Nature Reserve provided unforgettable experiences of learning, culture, and beauty. This photo is just one example of a typical day in our amazing outdoor classroom. Dr. Mark Wright and his students watched as two elephant bulls greeted them on a beautiful South African morning. What better way to learn about African Ecology than by the animals that call this amazing place their home.” 2. Yu-Tseng Lin is the winner of the Mānoa International Education Week 2019 Photo Contest, Landscapes category: Present, past and future – “The concept of the photo is about the past (history) - white and black picture - and the present - which is colorful landscape. The culture (history) makes who we are and how “colorful” we are.” 3. Irene Chen is the winner of the Mānoa International Education Week 2019 Photo Contest, People & Portraits category: Timeless – “Regardless of where you go, you are often amongst a diverse group of people shaped by cultures of the world, standing strong in adversity. The Mānoa International Exchange and Study Abroad program allows you to truly immerse yourself with people around the world, especially in places where you find those intimate moments that come and go, unseen and unappreciated by many.” 4.
