Study Abroad program opens door to France Continued from Page 2 Hill said he anticipates stu dents will use the 12 credit hour program as their full course load for fall '92. "Those of us involved hope those enrolling will be able to use all 12 hours toward their degree program," he said. Hill said although history will always make up a strong academ ic base for the program, he does not think the program will always have political science and history courses only. "Our plans are to include courses from.a variety of depart ments in the future," he said. Two A&M faculty members will accompany the students to Caen, develop the class schedule and plan field trips. Students will stay in a local ho tel and the classes will be held in a museum. The classes will have lectures, papers and tests. "Students will spend lots of time in the classroom," Hill said. Classes will be conducted in English and the staff at the muse um is fluent in English. The Foun dation also provides staff at the site to assist the students and fac ulty. Hill said students have an op portunity to study at the museum, which has information and dis plays about the Nazi occupation of France and the impact of totali tarianism on a democratic society. A World War II German com mand bunker is underneath the museum. The museum is located by the beaches where the Allies invaded Western Europe near Pt. Du Hoc - a point of great interest to Aggies, Hill said. Former A&M president James Earl Rudder, a lieutenant colonel at the time, led a contingent of Army Rangers who scaled the cliffs of Pt. Du Hoc on D-Day. Hill said the Rangers' objective was to put shore batteries out of commission to protect ships in the harbor. Rudder was decorated for the mission by both the United States and France. "It was one of the more heroic episodes of the whole invasion," Hill said. This is why participants of the program through A&M are called Rudder Scholars. A faculty committee will de cide who the 25 Rudder Scholars will be, based on the applicant's grade point ratio and an original essay. There is a minimum GPR re quired to participate, but the pro gram is not restricted to history majors. Hill said organizers hope there will be a broad base of stu dents from all colleges participat ing. Students participating in the program will be in Caen from November until December, and Hill said they can expect weather that is "very much like January 1992 in College Station" - cold and rainy.
