项目关注的焦点: Conquering Climate Change
田奎因, who is double majoring in 全球研究 and Spanish and minoring in English communications, is creating a bilingual children’s book about climate change as part of her study abroad program in Bolivia. Quinn is working with Kids Books Bolivia to research and write her book, which will be made available to children for free or at reduced cost.
As part of her independent research project about climate change, Quinn is volunteering at a bee farm that produces organic products and emphasizes the idea of sustainable living versus exploiting natural resources.
I hope to understand how climate change and human action are changing the relationship of bees in nature. 后来, I will be turning my research into a children’s book, working closely with Kids’ Books Bolivia where I will be writing in both English and Spanish as well as drawing the illustrations myself.

项目关注的焦点: Gilman Scholarship
由联合国赞助.S. Department of State, the Benjamin A. Gilman 国际 Scholarship Program aims to broaden the student population that studies abroad by supporting undergraduates who might not otherwise participate. Recent 亚洲博彩平台排名 recipients have studied in Australia, 比利时, 多米尼加共和国, 俄罗斯和西班牙.
The Gilman scholarship made it possible to take the next step in achieving my goal of becoming fluent in Spanish by the end of my journey at Salve. Without it, this experience would have not been feasible for my small family and me.
