NOTE: Program complete.
The goals of this study abroad experience are to provide SPC students with a hands-on opportunity to study ethics and/or humanities and practice critical thinking in some of the most culturally rich and historically important cities in the world.
France: Paris offers students the unique opportunity to experience first-hand some of the finest works of art and rarest items of culture that would otherwise be only seen in books or pictures. The city of Paris, its museums, and historical sites will serve as the classrooms.
England: The time in London will provide unique opportunities to visit the Churchill War Rooms and the war museum in the Tower of London. Trips to the British Museum, the Globe Theater, Westminster Abbey, and the Victoria and Albert Museum will help round out a once in a lifetime experience in the humanities.
