An Unexpected Holiday

Students Share Their Atypical Break Experiences
Winter break is typically viewed as a time of rest and relaxation, a welcome respite from the rigors of the academic session. For some BMC students, however, this year’s winter break consisted of different activities. Three different students spent the winter overseas, served on a mission trip, and studied in the winter intersession.
Like the majority of students on campus, Kristina Kozakova went home for the winter break to spend time with her family and friends. What makes her situation unusual, though, is that home for her is the European country of Slovakia.
