Winter Semester is approaching rapidly, and along with it... Spring break! That may seem a bit far off in some of your minds, especially with exam pressure at this time of year, but if your reading break looks a little empty or bleak, I may have an offer you can't refuse! There is a course being offered for the duration of our spring break that not only gives you an experience of a lifetime, but you earn course credit as well. Indigenous Studies 312 runs for the full 10 day break, and immerses you into life within a Maya community. By traveling down to the Yucatan Peninsula, you will be able to witness first hand the daily activities in the current community of Xmaben, take trips to ancient Maya centers such as Tikal, as well as many other once in a lifetime experiences! If this course seems like something that would interest you, or if you would simply like to hear more information, please contact Christina Pitre (cmpitre@ucalgary.ca). Good luck on your exams!
