It has been a fantastic semester so far in Scotland and there have been many memorable moments during the Spring Arcadia excursions throughout the semester. The Arcadia Centers in Scotland, Ireland and England were able to coordinate the first regional excursion in Dublin and on the final Spring excursion, it was a glorious victory for the Scotland rugby team who won against France (29-18) during their game at the RBS 6 Nations Rugby Championship.
