Study in Britain—Instead of spending their summer on Birmingham-Southern's campus, four BSC students and a professor are studying British culture through Aug. 11 surrounded by the broad green lawns and stone buildings of one of England's oldest and most revered institutions—St. John's College. Now in its 40th year, the six-week British Studies at Oxford program combines a wide range of seminar courses in the humanities and social sciences that are taught by British and American faculty. This year's theme is “Empire and After: Britain Since 1832,” focused on 19th and 20th-century British history. On the weekends, program participants are treated to theatre visits and get to travel to interesting sites in England and other nearby countries in Europe. Pictured in front of the quad of St. John's College on the first day of the program are (from left to right): University of Richmond students Guv Callahan, a senior, and Elizabeth Timmis, a junior, and BSC students Mary Catherine McAnnally, a junior; Emily Bertella, a senior; Ashley Rhea, a junior; and Morgan Eads, a junior. The students are accompanied by BSC Professor of History Dr. Mark Lester.
