Hi, my name is Kendall Dodge and I am soon to graduate with the Elon University Class of 2015. I majored in Biology, but I took all three levels of Arabic and have earned the Middle Eastern Studies Minor. My junior year, I went abroad for a Winter Term trip from Turkey and the UAE. We spent a week in Dubai and I loved every minute of it. It was so cool to see Arabic writing everywhere and actually be able to read and understand it. I would love to travel back to the UAE and explore all of the Emirates! The Arabic Language Organization has had a great influence on me throughout my time at Elon. It has helped me grow as a person through leadership roles and it has also allowed me to meet so many wonderful people with similar interest as my own! My favorite part about ALO has been learning how to cook delicious Egyptian food with Shereen!
