A student from Tazewell County makes the case for international study.
Jack Howery III
Jack Howery III, originally from Tazewell County, Virginia, recently returned home after completing a dual-master’s abroad in International Business (Germany) and International Relations (Italy). A first-generation international scholar, he began his global journey as an undergraduate at the University of Virginia’s College at Wise, where a pivotal mentorship opened the door to his first study abroad program. Since then, he has studied in six countries and traveled to nearly 60. Today, he is passionate about inspiring students from Appalachia to see the world as open to them, no matter their background.
