Should students worry about being the target of anti-American actions while abroad?
Although individual Americans are generally liked abroad, host nationals will often question the activities of the US Government and may espouse anti-American views. This has occurred for some time, both in peaceful and crisis periods. Using common sense, keeping a low profile, dressing to blend in, speaking softly, avoiding overt displays of American patriotism and staying away from known established American locations (like McDonald’s or Hard Rock Café) all help to alleviate this issue. Students are always advised to avoid all public demonstrations. Additionally, all CEA students undergo an intensive onsite orientation on safety awareness.
