Why Paris? “During class in my first semester, a classmate presented a poster on the Paris Maymester. Our assignment was to describe and analyze everything we saw. I saw Monet’s ‘Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies’ (my all-time favorite artist), the stained glass windows of the Chartres Cathedral, and the Louvre Museum. After listing all these off to my classmates and professor, a friend looked at me and said, ‘Lucy, you should probably go to this information session.’ I am extremely interested in French art and history, and am excited to explore this in person during my stay.”
