Vicenza, Italy

Course Description

Two quarter credits.This course is offered to inspire, advise, and assist you in maintaining a comprehensive journal recording your experiences in the Vicenza Program. The required format is a compact journal that is maintained on a daily basis with drawings, notes and narratives that summarize all aspects of the term: visits to towns and buildings, tours offered by architects and historians, and presentations by classmates in the course of our travels. Working in teams of two, you will also prepare to act as interpreters of significant buildings that we will have the opportunity to visit on our travels. The candidate sites will be chosen before leaving for Italy, and each team will be responsible for an oral presentation on the site and a handout to share.
