Colby student participates in a J-Term study tour London

2017 Feb 7

Samara Hull of Colby participated in a J-Term study tour to London with Carthage College.

Students on the "Gender, Race, and Class: Social Identities in Modern London" study tour traveled the streets of London and studied how multiple social identities (e.g., gender, race, class) create unique experiences and perspectives for individuals. Students met with local advocacy groups, visited museums, and attended a theater performance as they examined practical and theoretical implications of social categories.

J-Term is a special month-long period of study in which Carthage students explore subjects outside their majors or minors, discover new interests, and test their creativity through classes held both on campus and around the world. It's a month to experiment, create and dream. Carthage is ranked No. 4 in the nation among baccalaureate institutions for student participation in short-term study abroad.
