课堂笔记，8月. 14, 2019
亲爱的校友、捐助者、同事和朋友们:
新学年即将来临, 我们正忙着准备迎接一位文学院的学生, 艺术和社会科学是近年来最大的新生班级. It is thrilling to see so many students impassioned by the study of the liberal arts who are pursuing their interests here at the 365滚球官网. 在这里，他们将探索人类的生存条件, 这是什么想法, create 和 act in the world - 和 learn the skills 和 knowledge that will carry them throughout their lives 和 careers. 我们很荣幸他们选择称自己为汪达尔人.
在接下来的几个月, one of our top priorities is helping our students build meaningful communities 和 forge positive experiences at U of I – whether they are located on our residential campus, study at one of our statewide centers or are one of our rapidly-growing online students. 我们的学生来自不同的背景和各行各业. We want every one of them to feel welcome, valued 和 proud to make U of I 和 CLASS their home. 归属感是我们最深层的需求之一, 和 we will work during these first few months to connect our students with mentors, 俱乐部, 顾问和组织来确保他们建立自己的汪达尔社区.
CLASS prides itself on the depth 和 quality of the undergraduate experience we provide. 我坚信学生的研究机会, 出国留学, career development 和 service learning make a liberal arts education at the 365滚球官网 an exemplary experience. Most of these opportunities are available because of the collaboration between our faculty, 工作人员, 像你这样的校友和利益相关者. Thank you for your ongoing commitment 和 partnership to promoting a liberal arts education. I look forward to working with you to continue this great work throughout the academic year.
非常感谢你，

雷蒙华雷斯 wanted to get more out of his 出国留学 experience than just studying Spanish in the classroom.
的 365滚球官网 senior from Burley majoring in international studies 和 Spanish knew he wanted to take part in the traditional 出国留学 – all such students majoring in his fields complete a semester in a foreign country – but he didn’t know how far in depth his studies would take him at the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos in Madrid, 西班牙.
In addition to taking traditional courses about the Spanish language 和 the European Union, Juarez chose to take a class that took his education into the local Madrid community - Modern Spanish Culture Through Service Learning. Juarez volunteered for a local soup kitchen 和 food bank as part of the class to better learn the local language.
