Interim Program

The Interim Period is designed to provide students with opportunities for new experiences outside the realm of traditional academics. Many students use this four week time period to travel abroad to places all over the world. In 2006 the Interim Program took students kayaking in Costa Rica, play going in New York City, visiting Koinonia Partners and backpacking in Central America. In addition to these off-campus opportunities there are several on-campus interims as well. In 2006, these will include "The History and Politics of Hip-Hop Music and Culture in America," "You Are What You Eat: The Study of Food in Culture," "Cartography: A Study of Maps, History, and Culture," and others. In addition to the offered Interims students can design and submit independent Interim studies which may or may not take the student off-campus.
