EARN CREDIT
Priority will be given to students who are enrolled in one (or two) of the following courses:
- HON 3113 The Western Experience
- NSC 2204 Natural Science with Lab
- REL 3613 Special Topics in Religion
Students may not enroll in all three of these classes — that would be too much!
TEST YOURSELF
The Camino de Santiago is a shared journey and you will meet pilgrims from all over the world.
The Portuguese route is a 150-mile pilgrimage on foot from Porto, Portugal to Santiago de Compestela, Spain. It will take you along beautiful coastlines and hillsides of this history-rich landscape.
You will get in great shape as you prepare for and complete this pilgrimage!
COST
