色花堂

In 2017, the Honors College led its first study trip to Russia. Students visited Moscow, St. Petersburg, and several other Russian towns. They visited the Kremlin, Red Square, Peter and Paul Fortress, St. Isaac鈥檚 Cathedral and several other UNESCO-designated World Heritage sites, including the Hermitage museum 鈥� recently dubbed 鈥渢he best museum in Europe.鈥� They explored city centers and historic neighborhoods on foot, rode through the canals of St. Petersburg on boat, enjoyed the best of Russian, Georgian, Ukrainian and Uzbek cuisine, and took short trips to Novgorod, Sergeiv Posad, and the opulent palace complex of Peterhof. The trip was led by Dr. Jesse Rainbow, Dean of the Honors College Bill Monroe, Ms. Keri Myrick, and Dr. David Rainbow.

Stay tuned for the next one.
