"All college and university students would benefit from spending at least one semester studying in a foreign country "

It is often seen that education puts a man out of misery. Possessing the best knowledge on making humankind better benefits everyone around us. Hence it is better to cross the ocean to get that best knowledge even though its ephemeral.
When we go to abroad and study, our mind opens up to lot of things. We interact with the best minds and when we share our ideas, we get a lot in return. In this process, we also learn new languages and new cultures. When we come back and implement them to improve things around. We spend some time with Japanese, we will learn how to be organized with our work and come with innovative ideas for various problems.
One of the best things about going abroad, we will learn a lot of new technologies as many universities are spending an intense amount on research. For instance, my friend went to Singapore for an Internship Program. He was working in one of the cutting-edge technologies that wouldn’t have been in the reach if he stayed here. He made good friends with the people around him. When he came back, I observed that he gained sound knowledge in the field in which he did his research.
It is often said that the best minds thrive in an uncomfortable atmosphere. Hence it is better to cross the ocean to study and get the best experience. We might become more independent. We think more to survive in that environment. The first step to self-knowledge is the rejection of the familiar. However, not many get the opportunity to study abroad given their indigent background. But when we one gets a choice to go abroad, undoubtedly it's best to go and make use of that opportunity. It allows students to learn new languages and offers unique experiences. Everybody would benefit from that.
