For over 20 years, 新彩网 has led the way among the state鈥檚 community colleges in travel study opportunities. Our Honors Institute has offered a long-running, and ongoing, program for students to spend spring break in Southwest England while earning course credit. Our 鈥渟ister college,鈥 Bridgwater and Taunton College, has partnered with 新彩网 as we have developed new educational programs together, fostered economic relationships with our surrounding industries, and created staff development opportunities. It鈥檚 not unusual for a cohort of British students and faculty to descend on the 新彩网 campuses in the spring semester and join our own students in some of their classes.
In summer 2024, 新彩网 sent its first cohort of students and faculty to Yellowstone National Park for a weeklong field experience. The group hiked through the park鈥檚 unique terrain to learn about its volatile, volcanic features and to observe wildlife that one would never encounter in Raymond, Mississippi. Students were guided and lectured by a wildlife biologist who studies in the park fulltime. Students earned biology credit for their time in the field and in the classroom sessions leading up to the travel. We hope to make Yellowstone an annual destination for 新彩网 Honors Institute students.
