In a normal world, Transylvania University students would now be heading off to locales around the globe for a May term travel course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While COVID-19 has scuttled this year’s plans, returning students at least can imagine where they might be off to in 2021. That’s because the school’s Office of Global and Intercultural Engagement recently announced its May term travel courses for next year<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We at Transylvania are resilient and will get through this \u2014 that is why we’re already looking forward to the future,” said Courtney Smith ’16, director of global and intercultural engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under typical circumstances, the four-week May term<\/a> is a time for students to concentrate on one class, which is often interdisciplinary, taught by more than one professor and involves a trip, either abroad or domestically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next year’s travel offerings include a range of life-changing experiences, including The Pilgrim\u2019s Way: On the Art and Practice of Walking in Portugal and Spain. Taught by exercise science professor Sharon Brown and Spanish professor Jeremy Paden, the class will trek along the Camino de Santiago \u2014 a route taken by pilgrims since the Middle Ages. It’s an opportunity to learn a variety of lessons, from the neuroscience of walking to the spiritual significance of pilgrimages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Closer to home, May term courses like the History of Jazz and Rock Music in Memphis with professor Larry Barnes will give students a taste of how American popular music has developed since 1900. They’ll visit sites like the Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum, National Civil Rights Museum, Beale Street and Elvis Presley\u2019s Graceland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are excited about the programs that we have to offer during the 2020-21 academic year and look forward to working with students to explore the wider world when it is possible,” Smith said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
