Courses – Spring 2025 / Old Courses / MEXICO: SOUTH OF OUR BORDER

Coordinators: Tamara Weinberg, Harriet Dubroff, Joyce Sabella

To visit Mexico is to be surrounded by color and music. A fascinating blend of butterflies and beaches, murals and museums, pyramids and ancient temples, Mexico is rich in history, culture, and natural beauty.

This course will touch on some aspects of our southern neighbor including art, dance, and tourism. We will also cover history and an exploration of many archaeological sites.
