STUDENTS
Denise
Campbell
I'm a senior at UWO
majoring in history, political science, and English. I hope to attend
graduate school and become a professor of Renaissance literature.
I came to Cambridge because of my love of all things British especially
tea, Shakespeare, and the Beatles.
Jeri
Capek
I'm 23 years old,
and at year five, I'm about half way through my undergraduate program.
(I took time off.) I'm studying British literature and I have a particular
fondness for the likes of Bacon, Jonson, Donne, and Milton. The things
I want most to see in England are John Milton's grave, The British Library
and Museum, and The Beatles' Museum in Liverpool. I'd also like to
count the holes in the Royal Albert Hall, walk across Abbey Road, and visit
Apple Records in London. And, if I'm ever in a picture, I'm ususally
the one wearing the hat.
Keith
Chevalier
Keith Chevalier,
great grandson of Maurice, has played Hamlet many times in short productions.
His shutter clicks incessantly, as his photographs record the best of Cambridge.
He sleeps while others wait.
William
Croke
Good Day, I am a
21 year old History/Philosophy major. I enjoy technical theatre,
and reading. I grew up in Mequon Wis. I am really enjoying
seeing all the sites and hope to see more of Europe as time goes on.
I came to England to experience a different people and Culture, as well
as have a lot of fun. Oh yes, I am on the Cambridge baseball team.
Wish us luck against Oxford. Cheers!
Kyle

Political Science Major with a Religious Studies Minor and a Radio, TV,
and Film Minor (emphasis on radio)...I'm originally from Bloomer, WI,
and I spent a year at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN...I'm
taking this trip as a great oppertunity to learn, get abroad and experience
other ways of life...
Heather
Groschopf
I am currently a
fifth year student at UW Oshkosh and am happily going on my twentieth now.
I am an English major with my emphasis leaning towards two very different
categories: Literary Criticism and Middle English Literature. I am a member
of Sigma Tau Delta, the international English honors society, and
I am enjoying the trip immensely in that it supports the literature and
history that we are studying amply. Cheers!
Ethan
Liebzeit
Secondary Education
(History), sophomore, Appletonian. To visit the British Isles has
always been a dream of mine, a place of such unparalleled history and beauty.
Also, it's all about "Braveheart." What an awesome movie!!! My goal
is to sit on the rolling hills of Scotland in a kilt, made from the finest
cloth, as the sun is descending and the bagpipes a playin'. Cheers!!!
Deborah
Martin
Hi, I'm 22 and am
finally finishing up my degree in English. I used to really enjoy
classic literature, until it became homework. I'm from Arlington
Hts. IL and I must say, London makes Chicago look like a small town.
This is my last semester, and I am in Cambridge as the grand conclusion
of my academic career...YAY!
Karie
Orlowski
Karie Orlowski is
enjoying Cambridge for the many opportunities it offers her to contemplate
life. Formally an employee of Firstar Bank, she is now a photographer
of increasing excellence. She has been sick twice, but not from booze
because she hardly ever drinks.
Jessica
Plamann
Secondary Education
(English), sophmore, from Appleton. I really like British Lit. and so I
came here partly to see all the places that are associated with the authors.
Another reason is that I really wanted to see London, which I now think
is the best city in the world!!! I want to go to Ireland, Scotland, and
France while I am here, and maybe I'll study a little. :-)
Kevin
Poquette
I am an English/
Education major with a Library Science minor (please no jokes about
the dewey decimal system). I plan on teaching high school and
maybe some college eventually. England has always been a place that
I have wanted to visit and now i'm getting my chance. I will not
be returning, ever. I think I like it over here too much.
Karen
Roe
I'm a senior English
major. I have been somewhat instrumental in putting this website
together with Kyle. I have approximately 50 disks full of pictures
from our travels. I'm studying abroad to enhance my understanding
of British literature and history. What a priceless journey this
has been!! It's great to see that so many people have checked out
this website!
Jamie
Sidoff
My name is Jamie
Sidoff. I am 21 years old. My home town is Lodi, Wisconsin
