Have you been reading our Conversation on Transatlanticism in Europe blog? We've been posting blog entries and trip perspectives from our students who participated in our "Current Issues in Global and EU Affairs" course during the 2018 Spring semester. This course is part of our Conversation on Transatlanticism in Europe (CEURO) program, which is one of the EUC's immersive learning opportunities for students.

This week on Across the Pond, we're sharing student Rafael Rodríguez's review of the roundtable discussion that students were able to attend during their visit to KU Leuven. He outlines his own perspective and that of several panelists on transatlantic relations, particularly between the US and the EU. The article provides an interesting snapshot of European perspectives in particular, as they stood in March of this year.

Find videos of the KU Leuven Roundtable on the CEURO website.
