Shawnee State University Students Going to Germany to Study

           Two students from Shawnee State University will be traveling as exchange students to Ludwigsburg University in Germany.
           Ken Shonkwiler, of Greenfield, Ohio, son of John and Julie Shonkwiler of Greenfield, is anxious to learn the German language. Shonkwiler, a history major and geography minor, is planning to go to graduate school after he gets his bachelor’s degree to teach at a college level.
           “I’m shipping my bike over to ride and see the sites,” he said. “My dad travels a lot and both my parents are excited for me to go.”
            He will be starting a photo blog of his travels.
            Catelyn Jowitt, of Chillicothe, daughter of Michael Jowitt, of Marysville, and Cheryl McLaughlin, of Chillicothe, is majoring in international relations with an economics minor.
           “I went to London and that was really amazing and I just wanted to spend more time in Europe,” Jowitt said. “My parents are happy that I have this opportunity.”
