Discover Korea students celebrated Memorial Day by visiting the DMZ, specifically Imjingak Pavillion, 3rd Tunnel, and Dora Observatory. Surreal. #memorialday
The Discover Korea group participated in the “discover” phase of the program over the weekend. The discover phase included socio-cultural activities that contributed to wellness.
Discover Korea students sought a comprehensive understanding of “wellness” by exploring populations outside higher ed. Had an opportunity to explore a lifelong learning institute (e.g. senior adults), hagwon, schools for deaf-blind, and middle-high schools.
