South Central College will host a student trip to South
Africa May 20-June 7, 2013 (dates may vary slightly). Cost will be in the neighborhood of $3200-3400.
People who are not students at SCC are welcome to go on this trip, too, but students will be involved in a related course during spring semester.
This trip will be a journey in understanding humanity, exploring
the history of human rights, and being immersed in South African culture by
spending fourteen days on the ground in country. We will see the country, strive for an
understanding the historic culture, and connect with people. The trip will
include experiencing Cape Town, District Six (political basis for the feature
film “District Nine”), Port Elizabeth, the Red Location Museum (Apartheid
Museum), Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years), Eden
Campus Tertiary School of Business Administration, Nelson Mandela Metropolitan
University, Sedgefield “Garden Roots,” an African safari, Elephant park and
Ostrirch park, and personal connections with South African students.
Scott Fee, MSU professor of Construction Management, will be our group leader. He has taken groups to South Africa several times and was instrumental in the founding of Eden Campus TSBA.
