Mia McGarity ‘24 participated in one of Chapman’s many travel courses, and the experience showed her a whole new world in Bologna, Italy. The class spent eleven days abroad, which included an international film festival and a myriad of tourist activities.

McGarity always knew that she wanted to take her studies abroad. “I originally wanted to do a full semester abroad,” she said. “But I’m a creative producing and dance double major and with the demands of that schedule, it just wasn’t feasible to do an entire semester abroad. When I saw the summer program, it was perfect.”
