A showcase of students' artistic and scholarly responses to the Albert Gallatin Scholars' trip to South Africa, the America Scholars' trip to Cuba, and the Dean's Honor Society's trip to the Galápagos islands.
"When we arrived in the Galápagos, we were instantly bombarded with visual beauty . . . I also had to remind myself to shift my awareness to listening to the island, especially when it seemed like there was hardly anything to hear at all."
"Located some thousand kilometers off the coast of Ecuador, the Galápagos Islands is an oasis where one may connect with nature. The trade-off? You can’t really connect to the internet."
“In a country where iPhones don’t dominate the streetscape (yet?), eyes aren’t drawn to screens but are focused on what’s going on offline." Photographs.
"Most of us are used to being “locals” in New York City . . . The role reversal that we experienced upon arriving in South Africa that initially left many people uncomfortable."
