The uprising in Egypt has caused Arizona State University administrators to cancel a study abroad program at the American University of Cairo.
The university scrambled to evacuate two undergraduate students from the university. The students were to be taken from the university’s dorms to the Cairo airport, where they to be flown to Istanbul, Cyprus or Athens. ASU was flying them home from there, said Amy Shenberger, director of ASU’s Study Abroad Program.
The university decided to cancel the AUC program Sunday morning and evacuate the students.
