Enjoy the summer 2025 issue of the Global Buffs Gazette! This newsletter is to help keep our program alumni, on-campus champions, and Education Abroad supporters informed of all that is happening in Education Abroad. In each issue, we feature some incredible Education Abroad alumni, share amazing stories of our students, tell you about exciting new office initiatives, and highlight our numbers of students abroad.
