2022 Travel Courses
We are now accepting applications for May 2022 Travel courses.
Can we have travel courses in May 2022 given the COVID pandemic? We hope so and anticipate that travel will be safe and allowed, but we still can t really predict what the world will be like in May 2022. The College will review the world pandemic situation in January of 2022 and, should a course need to be canceled at that time, all fees paid to the College for the course will be refunded (including the $300 deposit which is normally non-refundable).
Note that more information about each of the courses, including dates, better fee estimates, advertising posters, and videos, will be posted as the summer goes on. We recommened waiting until September to apply.
Special to the Daily
Susie Davis, a longtime force for change in the local nonprofit sector, has been named the new executive director of Guardian Scholars, a scholarship program that supports local, first-generation college students.
Ron Davis, the founder of Guardian Scholars who shares a last name with his new executive director, said that choosing Davis to lead the organization was the natural and obvious choice.
“To know Susie is to love her,” Ron Davis said Monday. “To have her lead us into the next chapter of Guardian Scholars is exciting and gratifying. She just always brings energy and new life.”

A day at the beach
For Spanish photographer Lucia Herrero, the beach serves as an escape from daily struggles. In her series Tribes, the seaside provides a studio-like backdrop, with Herrero creating family portraits whose formality is reminiscent of ancient paintings. This work is among the pieces on show at the photo exhibition Family Affairs at Hamburg s Deichtorhallen museum.

April 12 You wake up to a dark, dreary, glum-feeling, Monday-type of morning. For the 547th consecutive day. Just 18 months prior, you were a hard-working farmer gearing up for another bountiful crop season.
But then the skies went dark. From early 536 to 537, they stayed dark.

Across much of eastern Europe and throughout Asia, spring turned into summer and fall gave way to winter without a day of sunshine. Like a blackout curtain over the sun, millions of people across the world s most populated countries squinted through dim conditions, breathing in chokingly thick air and losing nearly every crop they were relying on to harvest.
