Travel Study: Spend Spring Break Studying 20th Century Genocide in Europe

The Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences announces a Travel Study program for Spring Break 2010, titled “Genocide in the 20th Century and Beyond.” The trip, led by Gary Gershman, J.D., Ph.D., associate professor in the college’s Division of Humanities, is a component of the HIST 4700 course with the same name.

Students enrolled in the winter 2010 class will embark on a 12-day European excursion through the cities of Kraków, Belgrade, and Sarajevo in March. The trip will give students the opportunity to explore first-hand the historical sites studied and discussed in class.

To be eligible for this trip, students must enroll in HIST 4700. Students will receive academic credit upon completing the course, which includes the trip abroad.

The projected cost of the European trip is $2,515.00, which includes airfare, transportation to all sites, shared accommodations, daily breakfast, and any entry fees to sites on the itinerary. Students are responsible for additional meals and other miscellaneous expenses incurred during travel.

There will be three payment periods, as follows:

• Payment No. 1:                 $1,300.00—Due Monday, November 30, 2009
• Payment No. 2:                 $700.00—Due Monday, January 4, 2010
• Payment No. 3:                 $515.00—Due Monday, February 1, 2010

Payments, made out to Nova Southeastern University, are due by posted deadlines to the college’s Office of the Dean. Credit cards are accepted.
