• HSABC goes South — Rome, Pompeii, Paestum, Naples and the Amalfi Coast!!!

    HSABC 2024 goes on the road August 18th – 25th for intensive travel-study. Our days are structured much as they were in our orientation weeks in Assisi, but morning classes last typically for just two hours (some days less) with an accent on individual research. Then in the afternoon, work on projects on site and act as tour guides for the rest of the group. Most evenings, after dinner, we have chiacchierate, where we process together and reflect on what we have seen.
