Hi there,
It may be a bit quieter in Oxford during Miami's summer term, but Global Initiatives is in full swing! We launched about 1,000 students into study abroad programs, many of our international students are embarking on summer travel or returning home for the summer, new student orientation has begun, and the Global Partner Summer School (GPSS) will bring in nearly 150 students from Austria and China to learn about American culture and university student life.
Happy summer term, Miami!
