From June 20th to July 9th, 2010, this blog will follow the adventures of a University of Maryland study-abroad class in London, England. We will be participating in both the London Pride Festival and the London Literature Festival, meeting with local scholars, gallery directors, and writers, and attending theatrical, musical, and literary events. Follow along with us!

Nearly Ready

Never having posted on a blog, I thought it'd be a good idea to experiment at least once before actually hitting the ground in London. Michael and I will be arriving Sunday, and our students follow Monday morning. Until then we're busily checking off to-do lists, cleaning house, and fervently hoping Iceland's volcanoes keep their ash to themselves.

For those of you interested, here's a link to our syllabus. You might also take a peak at the brewing transatlantic political storm we all may find ourselves navigating in the coming weeks. Wish us luck! We'll be posting more, and more regularly, from abroad.

  1. Jason, this sounds like a fabulous trip. I love the syllabus. I'll have to remember to check in from time to time and read the blog. Have a blast!

    All best,
    Ralph
