Welcome back to Global Gamecocks! 

Today's episode features Meoshay Jefferson, a recent Political Science graduate who studied abroad in Jordan. She is a recipient of the Gilman Scholarship, a grant funded by the U.S. Department of State that enables students of limited financial means to study or intern abroad. The Gilman Scholarship Program aims to encourage underrepresented students to study and intern in a diverse array of countries or areas and world regions. It also encourages students to study languages, especially critical need languages (those deemed important to national security). Our conversation touches on how receiving the Gilman helped Meoshay study Arabic in the Middle East.
