During the four years of its existence this consortium has shown consistent progress in overcoming barriers to student exchanges and in improving the overall exchange experience for students from both sides of the Atlantic. Forty-three students, many of whom would not otherwise have been able to do so, have benefitted from the experience of living and working in a foreign country. Other students, faculty, and staff have been exposed to new cultures and ideas by interacting with returning exchange students and by getting to know foreign guests at their institutions. In addition, the idea of student exchanges as a viable and valuable option, and the institutional experience of actually accomplishing exchanges has become established at each institution, which bodes well for future interchanges of students. Finally, the high level of interaction has strengthened ties among the participating institutions and set the stage for future collaborative efforts.     «
