DeSales University's educational expedition to Peru spawned entrepreneurial programs to help villagers and provided an 'amazing journey' of life-altering experiences for students
Michael J. Krajsa
Last August, on a two-week educational expedition to Peru, I had not anticipated having the privilege of witnessing the astonishing daily transformations of my students that would bond us all for life as an elite cohesive team, nor the chain of events that would be set in motion upon our return home.
Returning to the United States, I felt it was important to share these life-changing experiences with their parents. I wrote telling them how their global mountaineer [child] 'negotiated many new challenges in this expedition with enthusiasm, honor, integrity, warmth, good judgment, and newly discovered self-confidences which they all found within themselves when called upon. As individuals and as a team they exhibited sensitivity, love, and caring toward one another and those they met."
