Dean Joan in Cambridge
USC was the first American university to be invited to send scholars to this famous British university's International Summer School. Dean Joan was there.
The International Summer School in Cambridge, England, offers students a splendid opportunity to study British literature, history, economics, poetry, arts and government and to examine the background of modern Britain and Britain’s rich and diverse cultural heritage. Students live in Cambridge Colleges and enjoy the artistic pleasures of the Cambridge Arts Festival, as well as the opportunity to visit and appreciate some of England’s major historic sights on the special course excursions.
USC was the first American university to be invited to send scholars to this famous British University International Summer School. For nearly 50 years, Dean Joan had accompanied a select cohort of USC students each summer.
