Fourth-year Political Science student Mark Chrabalowski holds the flag of Ghana at Brock International’s exchange pre-departure event on Saturday, Sept. 16. More than 30 students attended the event held to prepare them for their upcoming exchange experiences this winter. Chrabalowski has also completed exchanges in Japan and South Korea during his time at Brock. He is set to depart for Accra, Ghana, in January in his ongoing efforts to grow and learn about different cultures, philosophies and politics. “Every time I go on exchange, I gain so much new experience and perspective that it feels like I’ve lived a whole lifetime there,” he says. Exchange opportunities are available to all Brock students. Those interested in learning more can visit brocku.ca/exchanges for more information.
