The Salzburg Global Seminar


I have tried to explain to some of my friends at BMCC what the Salzburg Seminar was all about. Many of them could not get the concept so this is how I would break it down for them.

"If you are a student who is attending college and you plan to get your degree, find a great job, make lots of money and do all the things you always wanted to do, and live happily ever after, then The Salzburg Seminar is not for you."

The Salzburg Seminar aims to give students a global prospective to their studies. It helps you to see that there is more to life and the world that what meets the eye. It is more than having what you want to make you happy. It opens up a whole big world and gives you a glimpse of what is happening out there and shows how each student can become an agent of change and betterment.

I have to say that my eyes have been opened and now I have a better picture of what I want to do with my life and how I can go about doing that. I have an important part to lay in making this world a better place to live in, and so does everyone else. I need to do what I have to do and do it to the best of my ability. I am glad I have exposed to people and resources that I can access as I fulfill my life's goal. Be sure to stay on this journey with me as the dream unfolds.
