Tyler Quinn As privileged Americans, few places in the world offer a more foreign backdrop for us to learn from than India. Each day, I was constantly reminded that my growing comfort with rickshaws buzzing by in the streets, or samosa vendors calling out to us hoping we would stop in to spend a few rupees, were but a couple of minute parts to the complexities of that mesmerizing country. What better way to expand your comfort zone, than to remove yourself from it altogether. The ACM India program gives you the ability to reform the foundation of your character, and I struggle to imagine any student regretting their decision to study and live in India.

—Tyler Quinn, India, Fall 2007
