Two faculty members in the Department of Human Services have co-authored two articles related to their Study Abroad course, “Island Living: Service For and Learning from the Elders of Guam.”
Associate professor Bud Warner and assistant professor Judy Esposito co-led the class to Guam last Winter Term. The publications – “Island Legends: Examining the Benefits of Cross-cultural and Cross-generational Experiences for Students and Elders” in Anthropology & Aging Quarterly, and “Cross-cultural Intergenerational Service Learning” in Academic Exchange Quarterly – focus on their experiences.
Both faculty members plan to offer the course again in January 2010.
