Final Thoughts

I came into this trip literally not knowing who was going to be on this trip and where we are going. I think that made this trip even better.

Making memories with this band of pals across Europe has been extraordinarily fun. From Blimey Bullocks, to The Evening Standard, to even my transformation into Denzel Washington,, I have made some life long memories with a special group of people

Professor Ryan and Professor Kim did an excellent job providing us wth knowledge and the opportunity to grow and learn so much. from meetings with the Paris bid committee, to researching at the IOC, to walking through the gate that Olympians walked through thousands of years ago I was able to experience so much because of this trip and  ham forever grateful.

The Olympics mean so much to me now more than ever. The combination of Professor Kim's class and this class has made me realize that we need to keep the Spirit of the Games alive and well. The Olympics have impacted history in such a positive way, and it is so important that we as humans do not let them die.

Thank you so much to everyone who made this trip possible.  From the speakers, to the organizers, to our wonderful professors and of course my parents for paying for this; I want to thank you for this unique opportunity to experience the world like never before. So many people did so much work behind the scenes that we may never know about and those people should definitely not go unthanked. All in all, this was an amazing experience and I would recommend this to any person at our wonderful institution.

Citius, Altius, Fortius
