Sarah Sandison โ23 is a world politics and Russian studies double major who went to Kyiv, Ukraine in Fall 2022. She lived with a host family who did not speak English, but they made her feel right at home and they are still keeping in touch. During her time there, she took Russian language classes and her favorite class was the identity lecture, which taught about ethnic groups of former countries. Her academic focus has been greatly impacted by the war, and she has centered her thesis on the nationalism of Ukrainians. Sarah enjoyed traveling, and got to visit Chernobyl, which had a nuclear meltdown and left an abandoned, radioactive city, as well as Odesa, a beautiful city that borders the Black Sea. She also got to visit Georgia, Armenia, and Moldova!
