What is Group Study Exchange?
The Group Study Exchange (GSE) program of The Rotary Foundation of
Rotary International is a unique cultural and vocational exchange opportunity
for young business and professional men and women between the ages of 25 and 40
in the initial years of their professional life.
The program provides travel
grants for teams ofparticipants
to exchange visits between paired areas in different countries. For four to six
weeks, team members study the host country’s institutions and ways of life,
observe their own vocations as practiced abroad, develop personal and
professional relationships, and exchange ideas. Team members can come from
corporations, small businesses, community organizations, medical and
educational facilities, government offices, and nonprofit agencies.
The Skaneateles club has been active in hosting and supporting this effort in
the past, and provided two GSE Team Leaders in
past decade: Ward also led a GSE team to South Africa in 2004, and Tera Renner led a GSE team to Peru in 2005.
This year, the district is
exchanging teams with Brazil, and the Brazilian team is currently in CNY, and
will be in our region of the district during the week following the conference
– week of September 16th.
As of this week, host families
are still needed for their visit.
The team members will be at
the Holiday Inn in Auburn for a presentation at 7PM on Tuesday the 17th,
as will be touring Welch Allyn on that morning. The team’s schedule is as follows:
9/15/08
Monday- Wine Tour
9/16/08
Tuesday – Welch Allyn tour and 7pm Presentation
and hors d’oeuvres. Cost will follow.
9/17/08 Wednesday -Vocational day
9/18/08 Thursday -Possible visit to Cornell
9/19/08 Friday -Tour of Auburn and other local sites
9/20/08 Saturday- Rest and regrouping and time with host familes
