Must Travel Abroad Before You Can Graduate

The protest and crackdowns in Myanmar have weighed heavy on my mind this week. While devouring the Myanmar news in yesterday's Star Tribune, I also ran across this article:

U's Carlson School to require students to travel abroad

The University of Minnesota Carlson School of Business is requiring all incoming freshmen to have a valid passport. Before they can graduate from the program, they have to have put that passport to use. The university is requiring all undergraduate business students to have some type of international experience before they can get out.

About time.

I think it's sad we have to force people to travel...but good that this school is, at the same time!
