Students who participated in the Northern Ireland cross-cultural experience in the fall of 2009 will share and reflect on their experience as part of Bluffton University's Forum series at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 2, in Founders Hall. Forum is free and open to the public.

Crystal Augsburger (Bowling Green), Abby Carr (Ashland), Andrew Chamberlain (Lima), Stephanie Finn (Toledo), Teresa Karcher (Ada), Hannah Keeney (Phoenix, Ariz.), Megan Yoder (Kalona, Iowa) and Blake Zickafoose (Lima) will participate.

The purpose of Forum is to "encourage students to think about considering this semester-long opportunity for themselves; and hear about experiences beyond the United States as well as see how Bluffton students have connected with people in Northern Ireland," said Elaine Suderman, assistant director of cross-cultural programs and assistant to the academic dean.
