COLCHESTER, Vt. - Two dozen Saint Michael's College student-athletes studied away from campus in various corners of the world this summer and during the 2024-25 school year, thanks in large part due to coordination from Director of Study Abroad Peggy Imai and the College's Study Abroad Office.
 
While five spent full spring and summer terms away, seven more enrolled in two-week classes this summer, as "Coastal Biology of Ireland" and "Environmental Study of Sustainable Places" (Wales) were offered between May and June. Women's tennis rising junior Lyla Rouleau (Saint Albans, Vt./BFA-Saint Albans) also completed a two-month internship program in Paris, France.
 
The Freeman Foundation supported two additional two-month internships. Eighteen Saint Michael's students - including nine student-athletes - finished professional internships in business, educational, medical and other non-profit settings in South Korea and Vietnam through grants from the Freeman Foundation, which supports intercultural understanding between the United States and Asia.
