HAMPSHIRE MAY/SUMMER FIELD COURSES

Just because snow is already falling doesn't mean you can't start 
thinking about what you'll be doing this summer! Hampshire runs four 
faculty-led field courses in May and June, check 'em out on GEO's 
website: http://www.hampshire.edu/geo/14400.htm or speak directly to the 
faculty running the course!

Identities, Cultures, and Texts in East-Central Europe (Czech Rep. and 
Poland) with profs. James Wald and Polina Barskova
Course work will focus on authority and resistance in modern and 
contemporary central European culture. There will be site visits to 
dozens of lectures, museums, concerts and meetings with local 
specialists in history, anthropology, art history, and urban planning.

Super 8 Filmmaking in Paris (France) with prof. Baba Hillman
This is an intensive workshop in film making and film theory. Each 
student will shoot, process, and edit a short film. Theory work will 
focus on migration and diasporic communities in contemporary film.

Where Three Streams Meet: Exploring Celtic Spirituality (Ireland) with 
prof. Bob Meagher
This course explores the spirituality of pre-Celtic, pre-Christian, and 
Christian populations of Ireland. These rich legacies will be studied 
through text, from those written in stone to exquisitely illuminated 
manuscripts.

Summer Intensive Chinese Program (China) directed by prof. Kay Johnson
Students can choose from a four or eight week program of daily mandarin 
classes at Anhui Agricultural University. There is also the option of 
interning at an orphanage or migrant's children school.

We hope everyone is having a fantastic semester so far!
