Those who do venture abroad often describe it as one of the best decisions they’ve ever made. Join Penn State President Eric Barron and guests Michael Adewumi, vice provost for Global Programs, and Karan Sandhu and Nicole Bernstein, both Penn State students whom have studied abroad, as they discuss the benefits of international experiences.
