Experience during the first Summer Session (June 23rd - July 3rd) in 
conjunction with a linked pair of courses in Art and Literature. Enrollment 
will be limited to 16 undergraduate students who will earn 10 units. On a 
space-available basis, some students may opt for taking only one of the courses

units of credit may elect an independent study option for an additional 2 
units. Learn more about courses.

The Southwest Field Experience will be from June 26-July 3. We will fly to 
Albuquerque, New Mexico and from there travel by van for 8 days, returning to 
Seattle from Salt Lake City, Utah. On the trip, we'll . . .

     * visit sacred spaces of Native Americans including the site of North 
America's largest petroglyphs in Canyonlands National Park

Students will need to be prepared for early morning departures and moderately

first-served basis. APPLICATION DEADLINE: MAY 4, 2009.
