SPC Collegiate and Dual enrollment students have landed in Roma, Italia.

Today wasn’t as exciting as the days before. It was definitely exciting, just not as much as seeing the Coliseum or climbing the Basilica. We went to the United States Embassy of the Holy See. It was really quite interesting although I don’t remember much. We took a bus across the city, past the Coliseum … Continue reading On the fourth day of Italy~ by Benjamin Cheaney

During the International Relations class, we discussed about power and dominance internationally between countries, as well as made an extremely miniature mock UN and debated each of our country’s stances on global warming, which was quite interesting. Going back to power, one of the things we noted is that power changes between different peoples eventually, … Continue reading 551 Steps to Heaven on Earth! by Cheyenne Lake
Today was, yet again, an amazing day!!! In class we had our first model UN about the subject of global warming at my insistence. As a future environmental engineer, this is one of my favorite subjects. I would be representing Japan, who believes environmental concerns need to be addressed, but has put many other issues … Continue reading Rome just keeps getting better! by Mikayla Bridges
