Summer Study Abroad in Greece

Want to learn more about the origins of theater, democracy, and the Hippocratic oath? Enchanted by photos of ancient temples and the whitewashed Cycladic houses of Santorini and Mykonos? Want to learn about Greece's defiance of the Nazis and its contributions to the Allies' victory in WWII? Curious about why some Greek islands are "blue zones" with a disproportionately high number of people over 100? Fascinated by the myths and legends of ancient Greece? Want to race your peers on the same track 5th-century BCE athletes used when competing in the Olympic Games? Want to visit the ancient agora of Athens, Apollo's temple at Delphi, and the palace where Clytemnestra stabbed her husband Agamemnon while he was bathing?

If so, join Professors Debbie Byrd and Kathleen Parrish on Oct 7 at 4:10 pm in Pardee 101 for an overview of our summer study abroad program in Greece (May 25 to June 14). We’ll travel all around mainland Greece and spend several days on the islands of Zakynthos and Santorini, where you can break plates while dancing to rembetiko music. Come join us!
