Description:
Immersion experiences challenge students to engage in the realities of the world while reflecting on the values of human dignity and respect for the earth. Students travel to domestic and international locations, where they are exposed to issues of poverty and injustice while experiencing unique cultures and environments. They engage in direct service activities, participate in experiential learning, and make educational site visits --while living in the very communities that they are serving. Preparation and post-immersion gatherings are an opportunity for students to learn and reflect about the people, issues, and realities they encounter, and can provide a way for a one-week experience to develop into a life-time transformation.
What we do there:
Students may earn service credit for participating in an immersion experience, depending on the nature of the immersion. If you are interested in receiving credit for an immersion experience, simply contact Tracee Patterson at tpatterson@jcu.edu.
