To All Future Semester at
Sea Participants
By Preston Price
Dear Future SAS students,
This is an incredible program for anyone who
appreciates traveling as well as a unique academic experience. My
experiences were beyond amazing and in reality, it is extremely
difficult to put in to words the descriptions of events and the
sentimental value of my overall experience. I can only tell you
that participating in Semester at Sea and experiencing it first hand
would be the best way to fully understand how educational and life
changing this voyage can potentially be. The key is that it is up
to you to determine how much you get out of it, and ultimately how much
you grow as both a student and more importantly as a person. I
was surprised to find out that there were so many older students that
have reentered school and so many older passengers that are not
required to participate in the educational aspect of the program.
The beauty of this program is that anyone is welcome. My only
advice to any future participant of SAS is that you must come with an
open mind and a hungry desire for knowledge, friendship making, and a
change of lifestyles. Semester at Sea is a both a mental and
physical challenge like no other, and I emphasize that only a
strong-willed individual can take full advantage of their time given
and greatly benefit from this program. Promoting this program is
a must, and I urge any and all of you to consider attending Semester at
Sea because it truly is an opportunity of a lifetime.
