Last month, GCC Co-Founders Chris McKenzie and Kate Moore headed to Nashville, TN for the annual Forum on Education Abroad conference (ForumEA26). During the conference, Kate presented a poster session alongside industry colleagues Heidi Soneson from Gateway International, and Megan Jones from Drew University. Some snapshots of #ForumEA26 are featured below.

GCC's Chris and colleagues took a moment to take in the Nashville nightlife while in town for the conference. Special thanks to EUSA - Academic Internship Experts for the cowboy hats and location!
