CEURO Blog: Visiting KU Leuven as a Latino

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 Alberto M. Burgos-Rivera's blog on experiencing the CEURO program's spring visit to KU Leuven as a Latino. He discusses a lecture given by one of the Leuven professors (who is a Brazilian national) as well as social events from that day, highlighting how much the European Union has yet to learn about Latin America.

Visit the CEURO website to learn more about the schedule of the 2018 Spring School.
