To All Future Semester at
Sea Participants
By Preston Price
Dear Future SAS participants,
This is an incredible program for anyone who appreciates traveling as
well as a unique academic experience. My experiences were beyond
amazing and realistically, 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.
