Natasha Perkins is proof that the University of Regina’s Co-operative Education (Co-op) program can lead to an unimagined journey. Perkins is a graduate of the U of R’s Paul J. Hill School of Business and for the past year has been on assignment in Gaborone, Botswana. “Gaborone is a beautiful city. I have made many friends, some local, some expatriate. We have access to lovely restaurants, shopping and various forms of entertainment,” says Perkins who in 2012 got her Bachelor of Business Administration degree from the U of R with a major in marketing.
