Attention Graduate Students!

The CIC Traveling Scholar Program enables doctoral-level students at any CIC university to take advantage of educational opportunities -- specialized courses, unique library collections, unusual laboratories -- at any other CIC university without change in registration or increase in tuition. A student who wishes to become a CIC Traveling Scholar must first consult with his or her host adviser, who will determine whether the off-campus opportunity is likely to enhance the student's education and ascertain that it is not, in fact, available on the host campus. Each Traveling Scholar is allowed to spend up to two semesters or three quarters on the host campus regardless of how many courses taken. Should you need further information, please go directly to the CIC program website:

http://www.cic.net/programs/TravelingScholars/index.shtml

Calling all Art History alumni! We want to hear from you. Please email us your updated contact and professional information.
