Today we\u00a0 had spirited discussions on current event and issues regarding the Abrahamic Religions and the role of gender in the study and development of International Relations. If you want the opportunity to go on one of these trips, you had better study up, bring your thinking cap, and be ready to share your thoughts and opinions.\u00a0 I have to say that this class is not shy, will say what they think, and are ready to back it up.\u00a0 That is what makes learning fun and I am very proud of them.<\/p>\n<p>After our studies we set of for a tour of the Vatican area, with our annual trek up to the top of St. Peter&#8217;s Basilica (500+ steps!!) . You get the best views from here, as it is the highest building in Rome.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8668\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8668\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/study-abroad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/st-petes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8668\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/study-abroad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/st-petes-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Best view in town\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8668\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Best view in town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Once we climbed down, the students (as was I, once again) were awed by the spectacle of the inside of the Basilica. The mastery of artwork, architecture, and design is overwhelming not only for the adherent, but for anyone who enters this place. This building is truly a monument and an embodiment of the subjects we are studying here.\u00a0 It represents the power and scope of the Roman Catholic Church in Europe during the Middle Ages as undisputed hegemonic power of the western world during its peak. It is also a testament to the power of faith and dedication in providing this point of pilgrimage for much of the Christian community.<\/p>\n<p>From the Piet\u00e0 to the Balduccino to all the mosaic work, one could spend a lifetime finding more evidence of the genius of Michelangelo, Bernini, Bramante, and Maderno.\u00a0 I cannot provide pictures for they do no justice to the work.\u00a0 It must be seen firsthand to be truly appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>From there we hiked to the Castel Sant&#8217;Angelo.\u00a0 This was once the Mausoleum of Hadrian and then the protective fortress of the Pope from the 14th through 19th centuries.\u00a0 Again, we witnessed the genius of Roman Architecture and Baroque Art.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8669\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8669\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/study-abroad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/DSC01354.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8669\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/study-abroad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/DSC01354-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"SPC at the top of the Castel\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8669\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">SPC at the top of the Castel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>By now, you should know that we finished the day with exquisite Italian cuisine, an evening stroll&#8230;..and gelato.
