He\u2019s seen about 40 countries, 25 of those in the last five years.<\/p>\n<p>He says he\u2019s been able to travel through a combination of winning scholarships, living at home, and working part time as a waiter and soccer coach, all while being a top student in Carleton\u2019s Bachelor of International Business program.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s focused mainly on studying finance and international issues he says. \u201dI was just trying to get classes that relate to my travels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Czyzowicz is the winner of one of two Governor General\u2019s medals this year. He also recently won a Fulbright Scholarship to study in the United States. He will be spending the next five years at Harvard University in a combined master\u2019s and Ph.D. program in government.<\/p>\n<p>As the son of Polish immigrant parents growing up in Qu\u00e9bec, Czyzowicz speaks both Polish and French. He says he decided to study in Ontario partly to improve his English. He picked up German in university classes and while studying briefly in Vienna. Learning Spanish was relatively easy he says, because it\u2019s so similar to French.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s currently studying the changing culture in international relations. Today more countries are giving up elements of their sovereignty to participate in global organizations, something he says was unheard of a few hundred years ago.<\/p>\n<p>After working a few years academically, Czyzowicz says he wants to enter politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe will do us all proud,\u201d says Lorna Unger, Czyzowicz\u2019s academic adviser. \u201cI think we\u2019re going to be hearing more from him &#8230; I think we will all be able to be proud to say \u2018he started off here with us.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<p>This article first appeared in the June 2005 Convocation issue of Carleton Now, Carleton&#8217;s official monthly news publication.
