---

Professor Keiko Tsurumi was so inspired by the growth and resilience of the students who participated in the Mt. 黑料导航 Osaka 黑料导航 (Winter 2025) that she wanted to share their experiences with all of us. As you鈥檒l hear, the program is the result of years of planning and coordination, a testament to Tsurumi-Sensei鈥檚 dedication to supporting student learning. 

 As you listen to Professor Tsurumi, and students Gio and Diego, you鈥檒l hear the impact of combining high expectations with resolute compassion for students. This study abroad program set a high bar, yet the students continued with the intention of putting themselves in positions to learn and grow, like asking strangers for directions in a new language, even when Google Maps is a click away. 

 They had difficult moments that tested them, but you鈥檒l hear the way they worked through it and found ways to engage in immersive learning with growing confidence. 

 We鈥檙e excited to share this conversation on experiential learning beyond borders- it offers an opportunity to reflect on the power of immersive education and consider ways we can apply similar approaches to learning locally. Enjoy!
