a couple of hours later.. the result.. my 2nd press release :D

Is it heaven? Is it hell? Where should I go? And the credits, what about them? Are they really transferred? And what about the credits my colleagues will do whilst I am abroad?! And then there is the funding problem: Will they be enough?? Is it safe to go alone, in a country I have never visited before? And for so long?! Sure it will be fun but what if I get lonely?? And the language.. Will I cope if I don’t even speak their language? If you ever thought about ERASMUS, these thoughts have probably crossed your mind… and not just once!

If you are thinking about going for ERASMUS, are simply interested or have already been on an ERASMUS programme, then AEGEE-Valletta would like to invite you for a debate, entitled “Exploring ERASMUS”. Since its foundation, in 1985, AEGEE still considers the foundation of ERASMUS programme in 1987 as one of its largest achievements. As it lobbied for the initiation of the programme back in 1987, AEGEE still fights for the rights of ERASMUS students today.

Hence, this debate was chosen as one of our main events during University of Malta’s Organisation’s week. The debate will be held on Wednesday 11^thNovember at 10am at the University Quadrangle. Whilst being chaired by Ms. Anna Abela, the debate’s panel will include 2 students, one who is currently on an ERASMUS programme in Malta, and another Maltese student who has been on an ERASMUS programme in the past, UOM international Office representatives and Parliament Secretary of Sport Youth and Culture Hon Clyde Puli. Other tentative speakers include representatives from EUPA.

Thus, if you have questions about ERASMUS running through your mind, don’t let them bother you any longer. On the 11^th of November, make sure you will be at the quadrangle at 10am. With people who have experienced ERASMUS and also representatives from the main organisations in charge of the programme, this is the best place to get your answers.

In addition to “Exploring Erasmus”, during Organisation’s week AEGEE-Valletta will also be organising an International night and two info meetings (where you can learn what AEGEE is all about).
