Many IC students travel to other countries at some point in their lives, whether through tourism or study abroad. Our seminar will examine some of the questions raised by international travel: How might we prepare for "culture shock"? How accepting are we of cultural difference? What is the social impact of tourism? Does it contribute to a "co-colonization" process, by which other cultures become Americanized? Is "eco-tourism" a viable economic development option for less developed countries? Open to all first-year students in Humanities and Sciences. 4 credits.
