Strolling through the campus and american educational system
After yesterday’s “cultural day”, we went back to the campus to continue our research about opportunities that UCF provides. Firstly we visited the University Library where we met with Laila Miletic-Vejzovic, Special Collections & University Archives, who is originally from Zadar, Croatia. She showed us the structure of their archives and the way they “do business”.
After a little dose of reminiscence about the way of life in Croatia, we set our way to go to lunch with two very important persons, dr. Elliot Vittes, Interim Provost & Dean of Undergraduate Studies and dr. Rick Shell, Vice President & Chief of Staff. We had a very fruitful conversation while having a delicious lunch. Topics were revolved around opportunities in Croatia, exchange programs, future cooperation plans etc. Afterwards, we went to see recruitment officers for the UCF who showed us how they do their job internationally and what is there to do if we decided to be one of 1600 international students that study here.
