New Magazine and Web Site Gives Voice to Study Abroad Students
The Glimpse Foundation is an organization that brings the experience of study abroad students the rest of the country and the world via an online community and a quarterly glossy magazine carried in major bookstore chains such at Barnes and Noble. The site,
Glimpse Abroad represents an online community of young adults devoted to cross-cultural learning and exchange. It features first person, cultural-experience pieces written by study abroad students, volunteers, international students and others living abroad. Relying on narrative story lines and rich sensory detail, these articles capture readers� attention and concern by making the world personal.
Glimpse Abroad currently contains a database of 380 articles from over 90 countries, and will soon offer interactive web capabilities--including forums, blogs, photo sharing and message-boards--to all registered users.
The foundation behind the site also publishes a print review called Glimpse Quarterly, in affiliation with National Geographic, that expressions a
vision of a United States in which every person expresses the same compassion and concern for members of our world family as we do our own family.
The magazine publishes material by students studying abroad.
