Faculty and students are having a summer filled with adventure! Here, Dr. Meredith Eckstein, Dr. Tracy Livingston, and students are visiting Belize to learn about the local ecosystem. This program is part of the Cooperative Center for Study Abroad (CCSA), which offers small-group, short-term, faculty-led academic programs that travel to countries and regions around the world to study.

The experiences include encounters with howler monkeys and leaf-cutter ants, snorkeling among colorful reef fish and coral, and traditional Mayan knowledge.

Our commencement speaker, De Kai, is the author of the award-winning book Raising Al and a pioneering AI professor who built the web’s first global AI translator by inventing radical new language models, laying the groundwork for tools like Google Translate and Bing Translator. De Kai was honored by the Association for Computational Linguistics as a Founding Fellow for his decades of breakthroughs, which lie at the intersection of language, AI, cognition, and ethics. He is the Independent Director of AI ethics think tank The Future Society.

De Kai’s father, the late Dr. Chia-Wei Woo, was a theoretical physicist and university president. He was a 1956 Georgetown College Graduate who fiercely championed the liberal arts ideals that have rippled through to De Kai’s own work.
