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.
