My name is Phillip Antoline. I am a junior at Grove City College majoring in International Business and Spanish. Grove City is a very small school located in Western Pennsylvania, and with the help of ISA, it has provided me with an opportunity to study in Sevilla Spain this spring semester! I will be studying at La Universidad de Sevilla, which is located in the heart of Sevilla. I grew up in Hampton, which is about an hour south east of Grove City, and about twenty minutes north of Pittsburgh. Hampton is where my love for the Spanish culture and language originated, as I took Spanish classes from eighth grade with Senora Adams, until my senior year with Senora Schwartz.I was very active during my time in Hampton. I played both hockey and baseball, and cooked in a local restaurant on the weekends. I was also very involved with my church, and I always went on their annual mission trips. Currently at Grove City, I am an active member in my fraternity Pan Sophic. I served as this year’s rush chairman and helped coordinate some of the great annual volunteer events we run on campus, like Relay for Life. I am also a member of Grove City’s Spanish Club, and I served as Vice President for SIBA (Society of International Business Affairs) this past year. Now that you have a little information about me, I hope that through my experience this semester in Sevilla, you are able to benefit from the wide range of photos, and cultural information I am able to share with each of you.
Cordialmente,
Phillip Antoline
