India 2017

The Women's Center partnered with the Communications Department for our 4th global trip through “Culture of India.” This class provided students with the opportunity to learn more about India and some of the larger differences between Western and Eastern cultures such as LGBT rights in India, women’s rights in India, spiritual practices in India, etc. This three-week journey throughout India allowed us to explore cities in both North and South India including: New Delhi, Agra, Varanasi, Jaipur, Manipal, Udupi, and Moodabidri.
