Yasmin Galal, Class 2014

“The U.S. part of the fellowship was quite exciting, we got to see different sides of the United States, from the politically-centered D.C., to the hub of the civil rights movement in Atlanta, to the diverse and culturally vibrant New York. This diversity was also reflected in the speakers, from senators, to journalists, to Google ideas generators, to art curators at the MoMA and the Met. I challenged myself on many fronts and tried to keep my mind open to new ideas. I learned to accept people who hold different opinions than mine, and disagree with them with respect. All in all, it was a rich experience both on the personal and professional levels.”
