Even from Botswana, Study Abroaders make news at UT!

Dumelang! Our intrepid Study Abroaders are making news from across the Atlantic... their adventures have been picked up by UT's Department of Geography & the Environment as this week's lead story http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/geography/. There's always lots happening there though, so if you're accessing this later the story will be archived at http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/geography/news/6729.

Be sure to check it out- the lead photo is by one of our own students, there's a team photo from Africa's best TA (hint, hint- he also is on the GRG news for winning a national award for his ongoing research in Botswana, third item from the top or access it at http://www.utexas.edu/cola/depts/geography/news/6690), and there's also a fabulous video that UT Study Abroad made based on exit interviews with our 2012 Inaugural Class in case you haven't seen it yet... it lives on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Fng-IcBVKU.

Meanwhile, the team arrived safely in Khwai and all are busy exploring the Okavango Delta, often called the jewel of the Kalahari. They return to Maun in a few days for the last week of the course, and Okavango photos will be posted once they are back in civilization. Stay tuned!
