MS Trips > International Trips
During spring break, or early summer, the French and Spanish Department sponsors optional trips to international destinations. The trips are designed to provide a brief immersive experience in the target culture and language. Working with EF Tours, a well established student tour company, we have participated in trips that offer opportunities for sightseeing, visits to historical and natural sites, a brief language immersion, and some rest and relaxation.
