For first year cro

ss country runner Josephine Thestrup, the adjustment from Denmark to the United States has been successful.

Thestrup is on the Butler University cross country team and majors in biology. She said she wanted to come to the United States for college due to her interest in the study abroad experience.

Thestrup said colleges in Denmark and the United States are very different in that the students in Denmark are not on campus as much.

“At university in Denmark, we don’t live on campuses, so we just go for lectures,” Thestrup said.
