We are honored to have had Guggenheim Fellow, best-selling author, @americanuniversity professor, and Semester at Sea alumna, Rachel Louise Snyder, speak at our 60th Anniversary event this past October, held at @ColoradoStateUniversity.

Snyder, whose new memoir, "Women We Buried, Women We Burned" was recently featured in the Washington Post and New York Times Review of Books, spoke to the testament of a Semester at Sea voyage to foster belonging and provide opportunity.

As a part of a student theatre group during her 1991 voyage, she connected with kids in orphanages and schools across language and cultural barriers by performing folktales.

"The power of language had never been palpable to me the way that it was aboard that ship....In my life, in the life I've carved out, I use language because it's the most powerful tool I can access myself to use for social change, to use for good...Three decades later, what I remember from that voyage is this mutability of language to be both poetry and power." - Rachel Louise Snyder
