新澳门六合彩内幕信息in London dinner celebrates 新澳门六合彩内幕信息alumni, students, and faculty in capital city
新澳门六合彩内幕信息UK-based alumni at Botanica in London.
June 27, 2024 鈥 Winston Churchill first coined the term 鈥渟pecial relationship鈥 when talking about the uniquely close ties between the United States and Great Britain. The University of South Florida didn鈥檛 exist when the phrase was coined some 80 years ago, but USF has forged its own enduring British connections.
The special relationship is bolstered by USF鈥檚 700 alumni who live in the UK, its 230 faculty members who have engaged in research, business, or creative endeavors in the UK and through its partnerships with five leading British universities. The experience underpins the relationship as a flagship study abroad program that over 1,800 新澳门六合彩内幕信息students have participated in since it launched in 2013.
However, beyond these impressive numbers, there is something deeper to celebrate.
On June 26, more than 50 新澳门六合彩内幕信息alumni joined over 130 新澳门六合彩内幕信息students and their faculty
to kick off the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息in London program in style. The welcome dinner was filled with
countless surprise alumni reunions and numerous opportunities for students to connect
with accomplished professionals from various fields.
The alumni鈥檚 enthusiasm was palpable and inspired 新澳门六合彩内幕信息students and faculty alike.
The 新澳门六合彩内幕信息World team was thrilled to learn about their amazing careers since leaving
新澳门六合彩内幕信息and forged many wonderful connections that will benefit future 新澳门六合彩内幕信息in London programs.
Attendees heard remarks from renowned shipwreck hunter and prominent alum David Mearns.
They listened attentively as he spoke about his recent Shackleton discovery and when
he credited 新澳门六合彩内幕信息for his successful career. He joked that he is a 鈥減roud graduate of
a school he could not get into today.鈥 Mr. Mearns was so touched by the event, the
following day he spearheaded a fundraising effort to help 新澳门六合彩内幕信息meet its goal of raising
the final $5,000 needed to endow the study abroad scholarship.

The crowd of Bulls also heard from former 新澳门六合彩内幕信息in London student, Sarah Glaser who
went on to pursue her graduate studies at the London School of Economics and Royal
Holloway through a Fulbright grant. She announced she鈥檚 starting her career in the
UK this fall at WPI Strategy which inspired many of the students to queue up to speak
to her and many alums to welcome her into London鈥檚 professional world.
During her closing remarks, 新澳门六合彩内幕信息World Vice President, Kiki Caruson expressed sincere gratitude to the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Foundation for hosting alumni for dinner and thanked the USF leaders in attendance who are committed to seeing 新澳门六合彩内幕信息students succeed at home and abroad.
Leading the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息delegation were 新澳门六合彩内幕信息St. Petersburg Regional Chancellor Christian Hardigree;
Vice President for Student Success, Cindy DeLuca; College of Arts and Sciences Assoc
Dean Undergrad Studies, Allison Cleveland-Roberts; and Senior Associate Vice President
of Development鈥疜elley Gibson.
新澳门六合彩内幕信息is a young university, but its ties to the UK connect it to centuries of knowledge,
history, culture, and art. 新澳门六合彩内幕信息offers British exchange students the opportunity to
immerse themselves in an AAU institution in one of the world鈥檚 most dynamic, sun-soaked
regions and to become part of the Bulls global family. There鈥檚 nothing more special
than that.
