Intensive Orientation Seminar in Cuernavaca
We will begin the semester with an intensive week-long orientation seminar. Throughout the weekend and following week, you will be introduced to Mexican history and cultures and spend lots of time getting to know the other students and faculty and staff. This is essential to the construction of a healthy living/learning environment. You will also be introduced to some of the key issues that you will be studying throughout the rest of the semester.
