SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals
On last Friday, 19th of January 2024, English Department bid goodbye to one of our Shansi Fellows, Samantha Perez. Through her 2,5 years of fellowship, Sam has motivated English Department students to perfect their language skills. Although it is difficult for us to say farewell to Sam, we wish her the best in her future journey. Goodluck, Sam!
