Got to study abroad in Austria for a summer. With the student pass I was able to use the rail and visit just about every major country there. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
It's amazing how much world travel helps you learn that you are a truly insignificant cog in the machine of humanity.

I wonder where Coach O would have sent his players to study abroad.
Based on his recent engagement photo we now know what broad O wanted to study!

I studied abroad at LSU and count the experience as right near the best in my life.

Can't wait to hear about Herman Johnson being the biggest baby to study in Senegal during every broadcast this year.

My thoughts as well. BK said nothing regarding what they will be doing there.

Great idea but why Senegal? They gonna be strapped? We sending some bodyguards with them? Sounds more like a mission trip than studying which is great but pick someplace a little safer.

LSU Athletics, International Programs, and the Center for Community Engagement, Learning and Leadership (CCELL) collaborated to build this inaugural study abroad opportunity for student-athletes. The main goal of this innovative approach to study abroad is to implement global and in-state service-learning elements in their coursework. This approach integrates academic content, historical and cultural site visits, and collaboration with local nonprofits, to deliver excellence in student learning outcomes while also addressing the needs of host communities.
The robust itinerary for this study abroad experience will purposely explore the course themes of race, sports, and civic engagement in a Senegalese context. Student-athletes will have the opportunity to learn Senegal’s Wolof language, engage in a service-learning opportunity with an international NGO, and meet local Senegalese families, among other highly immersive events. The program holistically introduces LSU student-athletes to Senegal’s rich culture and its strong ties to Louisiana.
quote:
LSU’s executive vice president and Provost, Roy Haggerty, who has been a staunch supporter of internationalization, added that “members of the LSU football team will experience a transformative journey, delving deep into the rich cultural heritage, history, and social issues of the region. This immersive experience, which includes service learning, cultural exchanges, and education about West African culture and its connections to Louisiana, will broaden their perspectives and foster personal growth, ultimately shaping them into more compassionate, globally aware citizens. At LSU, we want as many of our students as possible to have learning experiences like this.”

Your 7 yr. Old son wasn’t born yet when BK was coaching Cinci. Or if he was, he was still attached to Mama.

How does this get downvoted?!

Totally off subject
But I’m noticing LSU is using the stripes on the helmets (white with purple stripes on each side)
In their marketing materials
They even used it to paint the field for the spring game
I love it
It’s way past time to take those extra gold stripes off of the pant legs
Let’s do it LSU!

How are they supposed to focus on Florida State half-way across the world???????????????
My 7 yr. old son has hated bk ever since he was Cincinatti coach
Do people not get that this guy is clearly trolling?
His 7 year old son wasn't alive when BK was at Cincy...

Its a great chance to see that they're privileged, compared to most of the world.
