(Transcribed by TurboScribe.ai. Go Unlimited to remove this message.) Hi, my name is Brooke Brashear, and I'm

2
00:00:01.860 --> 00:00:04.760
currently studying abroad in Florence, Italy with UTK's

3
00:00:04.760 --> 00:00:05.860
political science program.

4
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:08.320
What I've enjoyed most about this program is

5
00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:10.960
all the opportunities and experiences that they have

6
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:11.420
given us.

7
00:00:11.660 --> 00:00:13.080
We've been able to go to the Italian

8
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:15.440
parliament and senate, which was such a unique

9
00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:17.840
experience and so special, and I've learned so

10
00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:18.560
much from that.

11
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:22.200
Additionally, it's been interesting to see how the

12
00:00:22.200 --> 00:00:25.900
United States and Italy's policies compare and contrast

13
00:00:25.900 --> 00:00:26.540
to one another.

14
00:00:27.520 --> 00:00:29.800
I've also gotten to see where philosophers have

15
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.120
lived and how they have gotten their thoughts.

16
00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:35.360
It's been such an amazing experience, and I

17
00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:36.020
never want to leave.
