Hagel engages in Global Classroom Project - JOEL GEHRINGER, Daily Nebraskan
Sitting around a large wooden table, talking and closely watching two projection screens, about 20 students at the University of Castilla-La Mancha in Spain are waiting for the arrival of Sen. Chuck Hagel. Meanwhile, about 20 students from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, sitting in an Architecture Hall classroom, talking and watching the projection screen, also await Hagel’s arrival. But when the U.S. senator from Nebraska finally arrived in the UNL classroom, students from both sides of the Atlantic cheered and greeted him simultaneously, with one group watching his arrival in person and another watching on screen. Hagel visited UNL Friday to experience the university’s Global Classroom Project, which connects American students with students across the globe through teleconferences and Internet communication.
