Three 秋葵视频 students have received national honors for their entry in the 2012 Vista Higher Learning video contest. Chelsea Ritter, Meghan Mauceri and Matthew Monaco won $500 for 鈥淲isdom of the World,鈥� which stresses the importance of learning foreign languages. Georgia Southern was among six U.S. schools to receive the national honor from Vista Higher Learning. 鈥榃isdom of the World鈥� consists of several inspirational quotes and proverbs in foreign languages.听 鈥淭he Spanish one, 鈥榙ime con quien andas y te dir茅 quien eres鈥� is actually a phrase we learned while in Spain,鈥� said Ritter. 鈥淚t means 鈥楾ell me who you walk with, and I鈥檒l tell you who you are,鈥� or that who you associate with dictates who are you are. It鈥檚 a message that has changed how I see many aspects of my life.鈥� The students learned about the contest in their Spanish class from professor Jose Manuel Hidalgo, Ph.D. and created the video while living with a family in Spain. 鈥淲e were inspired by the 鈥榬efrains鈥� or Spanish sayings that we learned in Spain, which we thought would be great to feature in a video,鈥� said Mauceri. 鈥淟anguage comes alive to me every time I speak with someone from a foreign country because I realize that they had to overcome the obstacle of learning English in order to succeed here,鈥� said Monaco. The trio鈥檚 professor was glad to see their hard work and passion recognized. 鈥淪ince we live in a multilingual and multicultural society, it is vital that we educate our students who will need the skills to function in this society, to understand the many advantages of being proficient in a second language and to appreciate the values of cultures different from their own,鈥� said professor Hildago.
