“My summer work in
London was the most
satisfying experience of my
life. The ability to work in a
foreign country allows one to
become part of the culture, as
opposed to merely observing
it as a tourist.”
This was the assessment of
one student who participated
in the Work Abroad program

Traveler
Travel, learn, and earn
credit too!
New York,...How about
spending the summer
discovering the culture,
history, and people of exotic
Tahiti? Or studying
psychology in China, biology
and geology in Galapagos
Archipelago, art restoration
in Florence, or spend an
acedemic semester at sea
visiting 10 to 12 countries, and
possibly earn credit for it!
These are the types of
adventure-filled education
opportunities you'll find in
THE LEARNING
TRAVELER series.
VACATION STUDY
ABROAD lists about 900
summer foreign study
programs, sponsored by U.S.
colleges and universities and
private organizations in
every part of the world. All
the programs listed are
scheduled to take place
between April and October,
and last from three days to
three months. And although
they are study programs,
many include optional time
for your own travel and ex
ploration of the host country.
Now in its thirteenth year,
the Work Abroad program is
the only one of its kind
available in the U.S. Its cuts
through the red tape to help
thousands of students obtain
temporary work in Great
Britain, Ireland, France and
New Zeland. With the
assistance of the Council’s
cooperating student
organizations In each
country, participants
discover that finding a job
abroad is no more difficult
than home.
Apart from a modest
program fee of $60, the only
significant cost to the student
is the airfare - and even that
expense may be reduced by
special student and youth
fares available through the
Council.
“. . . work abroad is a
tremendous learning ex
perience; one is enriched
with relationships with fellow
workers and the adventure of
supporting oneself,” reported
another student who worked
in a Paris boutique.
The jobs are primarily
unskilled - in restaurants,
stores, and hotels - but
salaries should more than
cover the cost of room and
board. Some participants
save enough money out of
their earnings to treat
themselves to a vacation once
they stop working.

canoeing, skiing,
snowshoeing, sailing, cycling,

personal clothing and boots.
Each small group will have

instructor supervision,
relying on what has been
learned during the coiu-se.
Academic credit is often
available, as is financial aid.
In addition, several Outward
