The College of Agricultural and Life Sciences encourages students to participate in international experiences. One important type of international experience is the short-term international study tour. In this issue of International Focus, we look at three study tours that took place this spring, one in Nicaragua, another in Costa Rica and a third in Curaçao. Another in Brazil is underway at press time and will be featured in the June edition.
