Brianna Keeler of Bluffton, is participating in a Bluffton University cross-cultural experience in Israel and Palestine during the month of May.

Keeler, along with other Bluffton students, will visit significant biblical
and historical sites and meet with Israeli and Palestinian people.

Participants focus on the geography and archaeology of the region, the
history of the land and its people, and current religious and political
conflicts in the Middle East.

Keeler, daughter of Randy and Karen Keeler, is a freshman majoring in social work. She was a 2018 graduate of Bluffton High School.

This experience will fulfill Bluffton’s undergraduate cross-cultural
requirement that must be completed before graduation. Students can either complete a cross-cultural experience or take six credit hours in one foreign language.
