Thailand

Professor: Hank Delcore
Travel Dates: June 1 – June 22, 2005
Pre-trip Classes: May 23, 24, 25,26, 2005
Post-trip Class: June 29, 2005

What to expect: Students will experience the lifestyle typical of most of Thailand’s population by spending up to two weeks in a rural Thai village.  They will stay in pairs with a Thai host family who is excited to share their way of life with students from America.  Dr. Delcore and his wife Suwanna will also stay in the village, which is not far from the city, and totally accessible by paved roads.  Although it is a rural location, there is running water.  Field trips will be planned to various locations of interest within a few hours drive of the village.  Students will see first hand Thai systems of agriculture, education, medicine and more.  The trip will culminate with a few nights in the big city of Chiang Mai.

  JULY - AUGUST 

Italy

Professor: Allen Carden
Travel Dates: July 25 – August 8, 2005
Pre-trip Classes: Saturdays -July 9, 16, and 23, 2005 @ 8:30am – 12:30pm
Post-trip Class: To be Determined
Number of Students who may participate: Up to 12

What to expect: Students will visit Rome and hopefully have an opportunity to participate in the Pope’s Sunday blessing in Saint Peter’s square.  There will also be many hours spent in the Vatican museum.  Other potential excursions may include a tour of Assisi, Naples and Pompeii, as well as the famous Tower of Pisa.  Students might have a chance to visit to Florence, Sienna or Venice.  However, travel plans are still being finalized and the trip will be narrowed down to two major cities in Italy.  It is critical to note that the dollar is not equally paired with the Euro, and student expenses for this trip are expected to be quite high.
