I heard about the Tiffin University Olympic Academic Experience last summer, around late July. I remember checking my e-mail one summer day and got e-mail from the club advisor to the Warsaw Sports Marketing Club. It is exciting to get these e-mails, as you never know what amazing details are enclosed in the unread message. Obviously, when I saw the word ‘Olympic’ in the subject line, my heart skipped a beat. I was surprised. From the basic information about this program, I knew it was an amazing, once in a lifetime opportunity to dive further into the subject of the Olympic Movement.  I soon closed my MacBook and went on with the rest of my day of sports and homework. But I wouldn’t let my mind forget about the e-mail and took down the application deadline. About 5 days later, I talked to my parents about the e-mail and asked them if I could apply. I made the decision to apply after reviewing information online and once I had the realization that there would be no language barrier, albeit a slight linguistic deviation from American English, in traveling to London. So I applied, and originally made the waiting list. Through attrition, I registered for the class and am here explaining how I heard of the Olympic Academic Experience. It all started that fateful day when an email was sent out to the Warsaw Sports Marketing Club.
