Some missed connections and arrived later, some lost baggage (or rather, had the Italian Airlines lose their baggage), some just got there tired...but everyone arrived. This semester's Pantheon Institute students (who are from seven different colleges and universities in the U.S.) were all ferried back to the dorm building on Piazza Navone that will be their home. On their pillows they found quotes about being abroad and travel and how it feeds the soul and opens horizons. They unpacked, got a brief introduction and welcome from Program Director Jesse Smeal, had some dinner, and went to bed, tired but (we hope) mostly excited about this new adventure. Tomorrow Orientation and a city walk - but first thing in the morning: Italian Breakfast 101.

Benvenuti in Italia!
