Classes
Philosophy of Buddhism "It was amazing. The professor had studied for ten years in a Buddhist monastery. He was truly enlightened fellow who gave me a greater articulation for explaining my experiences of this world."
Irish Studies "was a class taken in Ireland sponsored by Villanova, taught by a Villanova professor.
