Barcelona Bound
... in spanish as opposed to an intensive language class, but I guess listening to someone speak spanish at you for three hours a day is helpful in itself. After our class, our teacher Jorge took my class and our Villanova professor, Dr. Taylor, to the spanish stock exchange: IBEX. We took a tour and it was cool to see since all of us are business majors.
