Indiana University's Sarah Eiden on Living And Learning Italian
Update: 2019-07-04
Description
When you take all of your classes in a different language, it's pretty safe to say you're going to come out professionally fluent. That's exactly what happened for Sarah Eiden in this terrific interview I did from her time in Bologna, Italy.
“I’m definitely more open minded and patient with people who have a different world view than I do” — Sarah Eiden
"She was unstoppable. Not because she did not have failures or doubts, bit because she continued on despite them.”
— Beau Taplin
