The VMI contingent will join 28 students from five other Virginia colleges. The students will have six weeks of study at St. Anne's College beginning June 25 and ending on August 4. Subject matter for the concentrated program will be the literature, history, and society of late 16th and 17th century England. Participants will earn two units or six semester hours of credit. The program follows the English system, combining lectures and weekly tutorials conducted by Oxford dons.
Tutorial groups are small, allowing for considerable individual attention and active participation.
The Elizabethan, Jacobean, and Caroline periods will be the central theme of both lectures and tutorials.
