Along with studies in French, they toured Nice, visited ancient Roman ruins, baths, arenas, and amphi theaters. “It was a beautiful trip,” said Dr. Mike Taylor, Elon professor of French and German who accom panied the students to the Riviera. “I think everyone really enjoyed the trip and the chance to meet people from all over the world,” said Taylor. Some students took op tional trips to Rome, Venice, Paris and Switzerland, They planned these trips them selves traveling by train on London calling What do roses blooming in January, a public transit system 117 years old, “bobbies” who don’t hold back hair, motorists driving on the left side of the road and YOU have in common? All could be found in Great Britain this January, 1981, if YOU register for Elen’s twelfth “Studies Abroad in Great Britain” program. In three and one-half months, YOU could be checking into the Kennedy Hotel in London, England, for 21 days of observing and studying Great Britain’s historic landmarks, scientific and mathematic theories, educational procedures and cultural performances. Great Britain’s castles, some of which might have been used as backdrops for a Shakespearean play, are beckoning YOU to “live” for a while where the master worked. Her villages want to lay the heritage-hand of memories and challenge of your shoulders to savor and evaluate. And in London, the Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park is dedicating itself to continuous controversy until YOU arrive! There is much to see within walking distance of your home base at the Kennedy Hotel, too. “London is a safe and exciting city in which to walk,” says Dr. David Crowe, this year’s program director. “In fact, your excitement will grow as you ‘London under feet.’” Each student enrolled in the 1981 winter term program will have an opportunity to follow his/her own package of extra tours, events, etc. For instance, groups in rehgion (471) will have a chance to study England’s religious heritage on location at London’s Westminster Abbey and at the Canterbury Cathedral. They will be able to discuss England’s reUgious life with University of London students and members of the Order of Blackfriars at St. Giles in Oxford. Similarly, specific experiential programs are available in history (471), English (432), math (471), philosophy (471), and physical education (472). Basic trip costs ($1149) cover winter term fees for each three-hour credit course and fulfill basic college requirements. There will be additional free time to pursue specific interests even further. Optional trips to other major cities and countries in Europe will be av^able, and special events such as skiing in the Alps or attending an Elizabethan Banquet can be arranged. Make YOUR reservation now with Dr. Crowe (Ext. 473) and travel England’s highways in ’811 weekends. Most students saw the Castle at Monaco, a working monastery. Case, which is a perfume factory, visited the casinos in Monte Carlo, picnicked in North Italy and “discovered” the nude beaches! “When we first saw the beaches, we were surprised but when we got used to the idea, it seemed a normal, every day occur rence,” said Robert Taylor. The Riviera is everything you’ve ever heard about it, plus more,” said Mike Smith. “Medieval castles were a dime a dozen,” he said. “We saw some really beautiful places and I per GOOD REASONS to see your good neighbor agent CAR • HOME • LIFE • HEALTH State Farm 114 N.

There were peo ple of all nationalities in our class.” “It was really interesting to meet some of them be cause I learned a lot about their particular way of life,” Tom said. “Everyone seems to share the view that the trip was a worthwhile one.” “We plan to go next year,” said Dr. Taylor, “and are hoping that people will take advantage of this opportunity to see the Rivie ra and to meet some fas cinating people.” Elon offers various other college credit trips abroad.
