Memories of Alnwick

Tina Ham Peterson ’93, Minneapolis, Alnwick 1989-90

My Alnwick experience changed my life. It was the most beneficial thing that I could have done during my college career besides getting a degree (and meeting my husband). The six months I spent in England opened my eyes to the world; sparked an interest in traveling; showed me that even though there are many differences among countries, there are also many similarities; made me grow up and become more self-sufficient; and introduced me to life-long friends. The British professors, Marjorie and Christine, were amazing and so easily brought classroom learning to reality in our field trips. My homestay family, the Kirkbrides, were great and we still keep in touch after 15 years. Traveling abroad is the one thing that I encourage all college students to try. I would love to relive the experience and appreciate it even more.

The study abroad programs that St. Cloud State offers are amazing and an incredible asset to the university.
