Tabor College European Seminar Journal

Sixteen Tabor College students will travel to six European countries during the January Interterm, from Jan. 6-26.

The group will visit Germany, Switzerland, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom, visiting several historical and cultural sites in Munich, Zurich, Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris and London. They will be led by Dr. Richard Kyle, Professor of History and Religious Studies, who will be guiding his 25th college tour.

“The trip is designed expand and broaden the cultural and intellectual horizons of our students,” Kyle said. “Most have never been abroad and many have not spent much time in even urban areas. Also, students get to see some of the major historical, cultural and religious sites of Western civilization.

“I hope this international experience motivates the students to think globally and to travel to other places in the world. I hope that this trip is just the beginning of their global experiences,” he added.

The trip counts toward academic credits in history, religion, political science, or art, and requires students to read materials, write reports, listen to lectures, take a test, and keep a daily journal. Dr. Kyle and local instructors will be lecturing throughout the tour.

Trip participants include: Jeff Been, Fruita, Colo.; Darren Enns, Hillsboro, Kan.; Amy Dueck, Reedley, Calif.; Amanda Faber, Hillsboro, Kan.; Mitch Friesen, Newton, Kan.; Sarah Friesen, Guthrie, Okla.; Mary Goering, Newton, Kan.; Allison Isaac, Visalia, Calif.; Cortney Janzen, Henderson, Neb.; Corina Neufeld, Denver, Colo.; Janae Rempel, Meade, Kan.; Roxann Stauffer, Milford, Neb.; Aaron Stepanek, Hillsboro, Kan.; Kaleb Sullivan, Riley, Kan.; Sarah Vogt, Newton, Kan.; ShaRae Wadel, Greensburg, Kan.; and Dr. Richard Kyle.
