Study abroad for experiencing "gritty" immersion...
Peter-Hans Kolvenbach, Superior General of the Jesuits, urged Jesuit universities to give students the opportunity to experience the gritty reality of poverty. No program at Santa Clara does that better than Casa de la Solidaridad, the study abroad program in El Salvador. But therein lies a conundrum: one of the things that makes Casa so great is the incredible self-motivation of the students- a very small number of students. How can the experiences in Casa be generalized to a university-wide experience?
