"This photo represents my final performance in my MAOR 108 class. In New Zealand... Maori people, who were the first people in New Zealand, are poorly represented and at loss with their language, history, and ultimately a sense of identity. Taking this course made me realize how beautiful their culture is and how saddening it is that New Zealand doesn't stress the importance of this part of history to both Kiwi and Maori students. This performance paid tribute to being an advocate for these types of educational rights and ultimately to allow Maori people to further discover their kōrero tuku iho (history) and further develop a sense of belonging in their own land." #GilmanScholar Nina Mercado (center) studied in Dunedin in Spring 2018"During the summer of 2016, thanks to the Gilman International scholarship, I was able to attend Zhejiang University of Science and Technology at Hangzhou, China... the opportunity to live in China and have a direct contact with its culture was the most valuable aspect of this experience." During his program abroad, #GilmanScholar Fabian Perez studied Mandarin, culture, economy, and commerce of present-day China. Additionally, Fabian volunteered at a local high school by teaching English."The idea of the unknown no longer scares me, but instead it encourages me to push forward and succeed despite obstacles." #GilmanScholar Christina Ebersohl studied viola performance and intermediate Italian language in Florence, Italy during the summer of 2016. The intense pace of instrumental instruction from another cultural perspective allowed Christina to progress at an accelerated rate, and studying music written or influenced by Italian composers offered her an inside perspective that she says she could never have experienced otherwise.Our final featured picture for #NationalPhotographyDay was taken by #GilmanScholar Guillermo Ledezma in Shanghai, China.
