Expectations
Academic
Travel
Keep a journal. The journal may be written or be a collection of drawings. It should detail your thoughts as you travel through these important cities.
Behavior
We're going to have a great time. We are all adults and we expect everyone to travel as an adult. You are a representative of the USA and of the University of the Incarnate Word. Therefore, if you behave in a way that endangers your fellow students or that is unbecoming of a representative of UIW, you will be sent home - that day - at your expense.
Note: Students who take this course in the Spring Semester of their Senior year are still eligible for Spring Graduation. Due to the travel taking place after the semester is over and the project that is required, grades will be submitted within 5 weeks of the end of Spring Semester. The registrar is aware of this. At that time, your degree will be completed and awarded. In short, even though the class is not technically over, you can still walk at graduation.
There is a prerequisite for this course:
You may be concurrently enrolled in that course and the World Graphics course.
