Rachel Newcomb, a former CCCL alumni from the SIT study Abroad Morocco program in 1994, is a professor at Rollins University and the author of a book on doing fieldwork in Morocco. The book was released in April 2013 and is a great addition to Morocco field research. We are hoping that our study abroad programs will benefit a great deal from it. Please join in congratulating Dr Rachel Newcomb and contribute by writing a review on the book anytime soon

The Center for Cross Cultural Learning (CCCL) will be hosting 14 participants from Vanderbilt University from May 9^th to May 25^th, 2013. "Religion and Culture of Morocco" are designed to give students an opportunity to explore politics, arts, and education, as well as social and gender relations in a North African context.

The May semester course encompasses two portions. The first, devoted to in-class lectures and study at Vanderbilt, and the second of which will involve hands-on research and experience in Morocco, supplemented by additional lectures and presentations. The initial in-class component will introduce students to Moroccan history and provide an overview on religious (Islam, Judaism, and Christianity) that have contributed to the development of Moroccan culture. What is more, participants will develop an expertise in an aspect of Moroccan culture, and articulate the significance of it through a group discussions and excursions.
