Students are
required to attend one field trip per semester. If they choose, they may
sign up for one additional field trip. For the 2008-2009 academic year, we
have scheduled the following trips:
Spring
2008
1. The United States Holocaust
Memorial Museum: TBA
Fall
2007
- The Organization
of the American States: TBA
- The Ropes Course on Campus: TBA

Embassy of South
Africa: TBA
- The Embassy of Rwanda:

- The Department of State: TBA
We need to know
which field trip you wish to attend by the beginning of the Fall semester,
no later than September 13. In the Spring semester, all Freshmen are required to attend the field
trip to the Holocaust Museum. Students are required to pay
$15.00 co-pay for all the field trips. Please make your checks out to
the University of Maryland and give them to your Teaching Assistant. In
addition, the College Park Scholars' community sponsors a weekend trip to
New York City in the Spring; that trip is voluntary and requires a co-pay
of $199. We will arrange activities such as a tour of the United Nations
and other activities, time permitting.
We would also like to encourage some students to attend the Model United
Nations (UN), held in the Spring; more details on this will follow. The
Model UN trip also will require co-pay, although the College of
Behavioral and Social Sciences and the Department of Government and
Politics will provide some financial support for those students who choose
to attend. If this interests you, please let your T.A. know as soon as
possible. The Model UN program will be for the Freshman students.
We
may schedule additional optional events for the Spring semester.
