• ECHO Center for Culture and Diversity; team-building and culture-exchange with European college students

I have chosen The Netherlands and Belgium for the unique learning experience and cultural exchange you will have with other college students from Europe, the historical sites, food, and rich history in both countries.Truly, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is much more than a trip. I hope it’s the kind of learning experience that will positively impact your life and you will talk about long after graduation.
