PROGRAM OVERVIEW

    The 2008/2009 London/Dublin Program, scheduled for December 26, 2008 - January 8, 2009, will be based in London and Dublin. Students may earn up to three hours of college credit by combining this study abroad program with directed study activities preceding and/or following the travel portion of the course.

    Two day trips are planned—one in England and one in Ireland. Previous years’ destinations have included sites such as Bath & Stonehenge, Canterbury & Dover and Stratford & Warwick in England; and Glendalough/Wicklow County in Ireland. A ticket for one theatrical production will be provided.
