About Us

The UF in Nicaragua program was established to provide students with an opportunity to study the dynamics of transnational non-governmental assisted Community development efforts in socio-economically marginalized communities, as well as various aspects of Nicaraguan history and culture. The experience includes exposure to three different non-governmental organizations’ practices of grassroots development in a variety of communities on the Western side of the country. The students of this program are all from unique backgrounds and cultures. However, we each share the passion of learning about other cultures and seeing an alternative point of view. The students of the UF in Nicaragua study abroad program of 2010 are: Julia Butler, Jessica Jean Casler, Chelsea Close, Mackenzie Deck, Corinne Gentile, Alex Hamrick, Crystal Hardaway, Jessica Ramirez, Briana Riddock, Lindsey Sarvis, Taylor Sawyer, Celeste Sununtnasuk, Kay Tappan, Alena Thomas, and Graham Wigle. Each of us will be blogging periodically to fill our loved ones in on our many adventures! We thank you all for your continued support and cannot wait to share our experiences with you!
