LeRoy Ford Video Link 3/25


I really enjoyed Mondays session with our international partners. I thought that we talked about a lot of really interesting topics. I was really interested when talking about the different professions that we have here in America and what they have in Russia and we talked about how important different professions are. Also, after I gave my introduction I got really intrigued with the question their professor asked me about what made me want to have such an ambitious dream to be a President of a University?  I guess I’ve just never had to look at my career choice from a different perspective before so hearing from them that they thought that it was a really ambitious dream made me feel really good and confident about my future aspirations. Something else that I found interesting was that in Russia they do not consider medical doctors to be one of their top careers there. That is just different than here in the US because it is a very competitive career to have here and is considered to be well respected. Another topic that we spent some time talking about was movies and specifically America films and Russian films. I’ve never been one to really watch foreign films but I feel like being introduced to it by them then I would actually be more likely to consider doing so.

In regards to our topic on the medical profession in Russia and America I read this article below that talks about the different salaries for this profession in each country.
