Anyone familiar with Epcot's World Showcase knows that there is room for a few more pavilions. Greece was one of the proposed ones that fell through. However, a Greece pavilion would still be a wonderful addition in the future.  Here is my proposal for the Greece Pavilion: Parthenon The icon of the pavilion will be a replica of the Parthenon. Inside would be an exhibit on Greek mythology and how it influenced stories throughout time. For example, Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is based on Pyramus and Thisbe.  Meg's Garden Behind the Parthenon will be a statue garden. One of the most iconic scenes in Disney's Hercules is Meg's garden, where Meg sings "I Won't Say I'm In Love" around fountains and historical Greek statues. This could be recreated in an artistic way, similar to the UK's hedge maze or the garden in the China Pavilion. Replicas of statues like the Venus de Milo will be placed throughout the garden. Disney could go extra-meta and do

After submitting your online application for the Disney College Program, you will get an email. Hopefully, this message will tell you that you have been selected to move forward in the application process. The next step is the web-based interview.  The web-based interview was the most nerve-racking part for me as it was so mysterious. There weren’t a lot of articles or YouTube videos going over it compared to the plethora of advice for the phone interview. Looking back, the WBI was the easiest part of the application process.  Essentially, the web-based interview is a personality questionnaire. You will mostly be answering questions on a 5-point or 7-point scale like “rarely/sometimes/neutral/often/always” or “strongly disagree/somewhat disagree/neutral/somewhat agree/strongly agree”. You will be asked questions about your personality, how well you work with people and punctuality.   An example of what the WBI will look like.

When most people think of Disney, Animal Kingdom isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Some people have criticized the park for not being "Disney enough" (whatever that means). But Animal Kingdom is very important to Disney. Walt Disney himself was a big believer in conservation, way before the modern movement of the 1970s started. Conservation was very important to Walt. He once said, "Landscapes of great wonder and beauty lie under our feet and all around us. They are discovered in tunnels in the ground, the heart of flowers, the hollows of trees, fresh-water ponds, seaweed jungles between tides, and even drops of water.Life in these hidden worlds is more startling in reality than anything we can imagine. How could this earth of ours, which is only a speck in the heavens, have so much variety of life, so many curious and exciting creatures?" Walt also said, "You've probably heard people talk about conservation. Well, conservation isn't just

  During high school,  it always took me a lot longer to finish my homework than it should have. That’s because I would constantly go down rabbit holes of the internet, Googling any random question that popped into my mind or reading Wikipedia article after Wikipedia article. Often, I would research Disney history. I became fascinated by old Disneyland. I would spend hours on my bedroom floor, listening to Pandora and reading trivia listicles. One day, a link about the Disney College Program popped up during one of my searches. Down the rabbit hole I went.  I kept the DCP in the back of my mind throughout high school. I figured I would do the program my junior or senior year of college, when most students do an abroad program or internship. Miraculously, I ended up getting accepted on my first try as a freshman. So if you clicked on this article, you’re probably in the same position I was a few years back - researching everything you can to ensure your chances of acceptance for the DCP
