Priscilla Organtini of Fredericksburg Studying Abroad This Summer

2015 May 22

Priscilla Organtini of Fredericksburg, Pa. is one of 39 Lebanon Valley College students studying away during summer break as part of the College's study abroad program, which includes 15 foreign countries and two stateside internship opportunities.

Organtini is studying in Ormskirk, England as part of a three-week course titled Curriculum and Instruction for the Young Adolescent.

Organtini, a graduate of New Covenant Christian School, is pursuing a bachelor of arts in history at The Valley.

The College is in the process of developing a handful of new short-term programs that would make it easier for busy students to study off-campus. This summer, new short-term programs were offered in Italy and Canada. By the time they graduate, nearly 20 percent of LVC students will have spent time studying and traveling abroad, experiences that will shape and inform the rest of their lives as global citizens.
