Schwartz Puts 60th Anniversary in Congressional Record

U.S. Rep. Allison Y. Schwartz has helped to commemorate Arcadia’s 60th anniversary of study abroad with an entry in the Congressional Record. “Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Arcadia University on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of its successful Study Abroad Program,” she said on May 6, noting that Arcadia began study abroad in the summer of 1948. “This year, Jerry Greiner, Arcadia’s President, will commemorate that landmark trip’s 60th Anniversary in July 2008. In addition, the University will introduce a new curriculum that emphasizes multi-cultural experience and reflection. In addition to the hundreds of Arcadia students who study abroad each year, the Center now serves 3,000 students a year from more than 300 colleges and universities.”

She concluded, “I commend Arcadia University for providing opportunities for young leaders to learn about the world and connect with students in other countries and I congratulate the University on reaching the 60th anniversary of its nationally acclaimed international program.” Read the entire Record.
