IVCC students Jo Zulkowsky, an Apache columnist, and Mark Meyer spent this semester studying in Canterbury, England at Canterbury Christ Church University College.   A total of 27 Illinois students spent Jan. 4 through April 8 in the program offered through the Illinois Consortium for International Studies and Programs.

In Canterbury, a medieval town of about 25,000 people, Zulkowsky stayed with a host Mom, just a short walk from the campus.  In this home-stay, Zulkowsky was able to experience English traditions and customs first-hand.
