Macalester students considering studying abroad in the fall now have a new college-operated option to add to an array of choices already available. The program, debuted by the Institute for Global Citizenship, will cover a full academic year and takes students from London back to the Twin Cities in a study of global cities.Global Cities in Comparative Perspective: London and the Twin Cities joins the three other study abroad programs operated by Macalester, in Germany, South Africa and the Netherlands.
Beginning with fall in London and ending with a Twin Cities spring, the program will offer students a chance to take what they learn abroad and continue the experience upon returning to Macalester.
The goal, according to a release from the college, is for students returning to Macalester not simply to apply their newfound international enlightenment to regular classes, but to continue in the study abroad mindset.
The fall semester in London includes a class exploring London as a world city and two electives from the School for Oriental and African Studies, University College London or the Foundation for International Education.
The program will also include independent study.
The Macalester semester will feature a Civic Engagement Seminar, and World Urban Geography as a possible elective.
The dates for the inaugural year of the program will be Aug. 15 through Dec. 11, 2009, with a break, then picking up again from Jan.26 through May 11, 2010.
The application can be found on the Macalester International Center website and, like all other study abroad applications, is due March 6.

Thanks for your content. One other thing is when you are promoting your property alone, one of the issues you need to be cognizant of upfront is how to deal with household inspection accounts. As a FSBO retailer, the key towards successfully shifting your property and also saving money on real estate agent income is know-how. The more you know, the softer your property sales effort might be. One area that this is particularly vital is inspection reports.

Good post made here. One thing I’d like to say is the fact that most professional job areas consider the Bachelor’s Degree like thejust like the entry level standard for an online diploma. Whilst Associate Qualifications are a great way to get started, completing ones Bachelors starts up many entrances to various careers, there are numerous online Bachelor Diploma Programs available from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another concern is that many brick and mortar institutions present Online versions of their qualifications but normally for a extensively higher charge than the firms that specialize in online higher education degree plans.
