Molly Adams Participating in the ACM Botswana semester abroad gave me so many opportunities I would not have had otherwise. Botswana was a great place for me to spend five months of my life, in which I learned a great deal and had amazing experiences that I wouldn't have been able to have at my home university. I was able to study and do research at an African university, live with a student from Botswana, learn about an entirely new culture, volunteer at a microfinance institution, travel to extraordinary places all over Southern Africa, and forge great friendships with ACM students, as well as local Batswana students.
