The first, in the first week of January Term, will offer an on-campus workshop to prepare the student for a two-week cross-cultural learning experience in Arizona. The second phase, beginning in the second week of January Term, will be spent exploring the opposition of uneven socio-cultural, political, and economic development and sustainability in a variety of national and state park settings.
