Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Interdepartmental

Description:

This course has been designed for students who have had the opportunity to study abroad and/or who are interested in studying abroad in the future. It focuses on what it means to be a newcomer (to a country, a university, a neighborhood, etc); how one comes to feel as though s/he belongs in a particular context; how one safely crosses cultural borders; how one's perspective shifts in returning to native soil; and how international study and travel bring a global perspective to bear on domestic and foreign cultures alike, such that the strange becomes familiar and the familiar strange.
