Program Highlights
JanTerms are a one-month, intensive study either at home or abroad, offered in January or May. Travel courses to different parts of the world, studying culture and communication, enrich your educational experience in an evolving global world. While on-campus courses support your exportation of new areas of interest or a focused study of your passions.
Students are encouraged to acquire firsthand experiences by studying abroad. Almost all of our majors spend at least a semester abroad, in Spain, Mexico, Peru, Costa Rica, Chile, or Argentina.
Students have the opportunity to travel to Greece and Israel during the summers and be part of an archaeological excavation. Students will take part in all aspects of the excavation, digging, cleaning of artifacts, cataloging, etc. while learning about modern archaeological methodology and about the history of the sites where they are working.
