Junior Year Abroad Network Annual Report 2008-2009
January 4, 2010
Forty-two Georgetown students studying on five different continents participated in the Junior Year Abroad Network (JYAN) in 2008-09, sharing reflections on their time spent living and studying around the globe. Participants wrote "letters from abroad" dealing with questions of religion, culture, and politics in their host countries. The student writings engaged their common experiences and perceptions of their different cultures, particularly the many roles that religion plays in their host country's culture. This publication reflects their experiences and shares their writings with the wider Georgetown community and beyond.
