Join Professors Shannan Mattiace and Mark Cosdon at 12:55 p.m. this coming Friday, October 8 for an information session on the 2022 Italy EL travel course. Earn four credits for this interdisciplinary exploration of Italy grounded in Italian language and culture, the Renaissance, and Italy’s evolving contemporary landscape. Amelia, an ancient and beautiful hill town, is the course’s starting point. Here, students live with families and study Italian intensively. Customs, mores, and manners are learned first-hand through a range of activities and field trips. Subsequent extended study in Florence, Naples, Pompeii, Capri, and Rome demonstrate humanism and the interconnectedness of the liberal arts through careful consideration of the historic past, the impact of tourism, the challenges of environmental responsibility, immigration, and the shifting Italian nation in an increasingly global economy. The application is now available and can be accessed by clicking this link.
