MARK LENHART: In all of our locations, we place students with local roommates.

　　Students gain from that, he says, but the experience is not always easy.

　　MARK LENHART: Not just in terms of language learning, but they also find the local culture can present challenges, and perhaps misunderstandings. They have to adjust to local life. Its no longer OK just to have a little Chinese, for instance. If a student is studying Chinese, they want to come home from a program like this fluent in Chinese. And so this will enable students to become more employable when they graduate.
