Junior Year (to be spent abroad)

    It is recommended that the student be placed in residence at or near the university that they will be attending.  An effort should be made to avoid large universities or learning centers where American students usually congregate.  If possible, the student should live in a private home rather than a dorm in order to acquire greater facility in the use of their foreign language.

There are three objectives for the junior year abroad:

1. To have a concentrated study of a foreign language, including a study of the culture of the people amoung          whom the student is a guest.
2. To register at an institution of higher learning where such courses in history, politics, economics, sociology, or literature may be offered.
3. The preparation of a comprehensive report embodying the result of research and investigation in connection with a phase of history, politics or life of the people of the area.  This report should be submitted to the special senior seminar as noted below.
