Lecturer, Eotvos Lorand University
"My experience at CEU led me to develop a whole different idea of what learning actually is - it isn't simply obtaining and retaining truth and justifying this truth, but understanding what truth means to all different groups of people around the world. I was able to break through the world that my mind crafted as a reality and see the broader picture of what is happening to others. What better way could I have been taught about the world around me?"
