A typical week for Lauren centers on her classes at Lorenzo de Medici where she is taking Introduction to the Fashion In- dustry, Beginning Italian, Principles of Drawing and Composition, Basic Sewing and College Writing II. “I really do enjoy all of my classes here,” she said. Lauren wakes up “None of my professors are American; my writing teacher is from England, my fashion teacher is from Germany, and all of the others are from Italy. They bring a completely different perspective into every- thing. “I feel like I’m gaining a lot of extra experience both academically and personally than if I had gone straight to Marist,” continued Lauren. “Academically, it’s allowing me so much hands-on experience and so many different ideas to learn and study about. I also have the easy ability to travel to so many unique and interesting places.” Come the weekend and Lauren is off exploring these See PETERS, Page 6

She also visited “Rome and Vatican City for an ex- clusive tour of the necropolis un- der St. Peter’s Basilica, and Peru- gia for the annual Eurochocolate Festival.” The experience of living in a dif- ferent culture is not lost on this fresh-faced girl from Kwajalein.
