Orientations for 2012 Tours
Dear Travelers, Families and Friends:
Our Orientations are presentations meant to reduce the uncertainties that often accompany international travel. The focus of each is, of course, the traveler; but is also meant to connect and involve our families. All students are required to attend. Parents, spouses and friends are encouraged to attend. Comments collected over the past 32 years have characterized our Orientations as essential, entertaining, informative and reassuring.
