>> Study abroad.
They can start going to different countries first if they wanted to,
but if they can't afford to do that they can become acculturated.
They need to understand different cultures, they need to expand their friends
and their network, but they also need to read.
They need to watch the news, they need to understand what's going on in the world
and that is from any perspective of whether you're a hospital administrator, a YMCA person,
it doesn't matter because you need to understand what are some of the stresses
that people are dealing with in the world to help work with others.
You do have to read your books.
I know that's very hard for students to do and I can tell you even
as a doctoral student I don't read everything that my professors assign, but you should read
as much as you can because, and absorb.
Don't read just to memorize, read to absorb and read to critically think
about what you're reading because those critical thinking skills are what has set me apart
from others in interviews and on the workforce.
