The most stressful semester in paradise

I absolutely loved my semester in Athens. It was also one of the most stressful experiences of my life, with three upper level language courses and one heavy research course. I cannot recommend taking upper level language courses to anyone thinking about applying to graduate programs in the same semester. Being able to study Ancient Greece while in the shadow of the Akropolis is an experience unlike any other, and I highly recommend taking classes with Professors Kritsotakis or Pitt. They are some of the most caring and funny people, let alone professors, I have ever met.
