What’s your fondest memory of UWI?

This month the Campus was buzzing – we asked a few of our students some interesting questions and got even more interesting answers:
 
Maya Wurzel
Final Year Foreign Exchange Medical Sciences Student
JWG University, Frankfurt, Faculty of Medical Sciences

“I’m in the Gyne (Gynecological) ward and I like it here because it’s more practical and in Autumn I’ll start as a Doctor and the preparation here is better because it’s more practical and you get more experience.”
 
Arthur Carr
3rd year UWI student
Faculty of Science and Agriculture

“I guess my fondest memory would be hiking with the Hiking Club to Salybia Waterfall; and there was a jump, it seemed like three stories high, and I jumped off; and that was just a few months after learning to swim. I learnt to swim at UWI also.”
 
Seychelle Sampath
2nd Year UWI student
Faculty of Social Sciences

“I will always remember all the projects we had to do – it showed me really how to interact with other people and to have a greater understanding of each other.”
 
Denny Singh
2nd Year UWI student
Faculty of Science and Agriculture

“I really enjoyed the first GUADY (Get Up And Do it Yourself, a Student Guild initiative) football match at UWI. We lost, but just the feeling of playing in a competition, plus I was the Captain of the team – so that was really great.”
 
Alexandra Kehrer
Final Year Foreign Exchange Medical Sciences Student
Charite Berlin, Germany Faculty of Medical Sciences

“I like that I can compare the two systems – the differences are not as huge. The people are very nice and helpful and it’s a very good atmosphere on the ward and in the hospital in general.”
