| When most people look out into a landscape, they are often confronted with the "green haze"; i.e. plants. The goal of this course is to train you how to penetrate the green haze and gain an appreciation of the incredible diversity of plants that exist. We hold this course in the Bahamas is because the diversity of plants is greater in the tropics; also, because this diversity is so different from Ohio, you will view it with fresh eyes. In the course, we will not only learn to recognize common species and families of tropic plants, we will visit multiple habitat types, from Pine forests to Mangrove swamps to small Cays and learn methods for measuring that diversity. In addition, we incorporate multiple activities and opportunities to learn more about the people and culture of the Bahamas.

| The Way of St. James is a journey like no other to deepen understandings of Spanish and European cultures (and, by extension, both Western civilization and pilgrimage studies) is something that anyone out of the hundreds of thousands who have done El Camino would be more than likely to corroborate. This course takes place during three weeks of the Winter Term while hiking along The Way of St. James (Camino Mozárabe and Camino Francés, a UNESCO world heritage site). Independently of the academic component of the course, each participant may have a different personal approach to The Way. A traveling experience, not only physical but also emotional, The Way of St. James may become a religious pilgrimage, an introspective encounter with oneself, an individual challenge of walking around 12-14 miles daily, or a cultural journey through a different space, and also a different time, as far back as the 11th century. | SPN 399A/599A (6) | |
