Stephanie Pierson '13, Rome - Where in the World Are IWU Titans? (sitios de interés)
Descripción del sitio
Stephanie took courses in Rome for a semester. As part of one of her anthropology courses, she had the opportunity to join a research group studying the role of the American Catholic community in Rome, focusing on the church Santa Susanna. They observed and participated in Mass and she even interviewed the rector at Santa Susanna.
"It seems simple, but the coolest thing for me was walking the streets of Rome. It's a very walkable city - I tried to find new routes to school and home, which was easy to do. I was always finding new shops and loved listening to people speaking Italian to each other along the way. My favorite route to school was along the Via Guilia, a street built in the early 1500s. It was incredible imagining all the people who had walked there before me."
