If, however, students plan to not be engaged with the program, make poor decisions and expect a lot of free time, they are encouraged NOT to participate in Global Spring Panama. • Students will be engaged in activities including business and cultural visits daily, with an average schedule of 8 am – 5 or 6 pm.

Students are also encouraged to speak with a PLC faculty or staff leader if they are having difficulty adapting to these new circumstances.
