At Stan State, as part of our fundamental mission to create an informed public for a global democratic society, we strive to expand our students and community members' intellectual and geographical horizons. This is the only program in the region, and within the CSU system, open to students of all majors, faculty, staff and even members from other CSU campuses. For many participants, it represents not only a rare opportunity to study genocide and the roots of hate in person but also their first time traveling abroad.Email Professor Sebastian Sclofsky for more information: jsclofsky@csustan.edu
