Psychology 326 - Far from Thy Valley:Colgate's Contributions to Northeast India

Institution:

Colgate University

Subject:

Description:

J. Carter Since its founding in 1819, as the Hamilton Literary and Theological Institute, graduates from what came to be known as Madison University and today, internationally, as Colgate University, have made magnificent contributions in Myanmar (Burma), in India, and in China. This course focuses on two major states on Northeast India - Assam and Meghalaya - and the contributions made there which led to the presence of theological colleges, schools, and churches. The focal lenses for these considerations are the lives of Miles Bronson and P.H. Moore and others in Assam, and Marcus Mason, Elnathan Phillips, and Frederic William Harding in Meghalaya. The course also has an optional three-week extended study component in which students have the opportunity of visiting Delhi, India, before going on to Guwahati, Nagaon, and Jorhat (Assam), then on to Tura (Meghalaha) to see the vibrant results of the efforts of Colgate alumni in these areas.
