Studia a Roma, Assisi, Siena e Firenze!

For everyone interested, there is a great opportunity being offered at Brock this year! The course Reading the Italian Medieval and Renaissance City (ITAL/VISA/MARS 3M50) is being offered this summer.

The course will begin at Brock in May during the Spring Evening session, then continue with a two-week study tour in Italy to the cities of Rome, Assisi, Florence, and Siena. 

The travel package is all-inclusive and worry-free with return flights, private coach transportation, 3-star hotels, breakfast and dinner!

If you are interested, please attend an Information Meeting on Tuesday, December 4th from 3pm-4pm in Plaza 410! There is a maximum of 24 students to be enrolled in the course so it's being offered on a first-come, first-served basis!

Drop in anytime between 12pm & 2pm! The club is a great opportunity for students to be active in their Italian cultural community, build their Italian language skills, and simply, to just have fun & meet new people! Students from all academic and cultural backgrounds are welcome, so please feel free to bring friends. Club President Carina Magazzeni, Vice President Joseph Barzetti, Secretary Antonietta Anello, and Events Co-ordinator Lily Leahey will be hosting the Meet & Greet session and will answer any questions students might have concerning the club's intentions, scheduled meeting times and events.


There will be FREE Starbucks coffee and Italian cookies! Is there any better way to start your afternoon?
