Season 2 - #10 - Studying Abroad as an LGBTQ+ Student
Join host Nicole as she chats with Christopher Knight, a USAC Alicante, Spain Alumn, who shares his experience studying abroad as a queer, trans student. Christopher discusses how identity can be viewed in global cultures, primarily Alicante, what his experience was being a queer, trans student abroad, and how language and authenticity played a part in opening doors to his current academic and personal endeavors.
To learn more about studying abroad as an LGBTQ+ student, check out USAC's Equity and Inclusion resources, and explore more student reflections on the USAC blog.
