Athens Campus Visit 2023
2024 Cohort (Juniors)
March 20-21, 2023
Cost per student/chaperone: $225
[Based on 20-25 participating students]
Dr. Bowen, Coach Trentacoste & Coach Blythe invite you to join them and your cohorts for a research immersion visit to UGA. The trip is organized by the Pope Globalization Academy Foundation in partnership with UGA Honor College and various funded research programs, schools, and departments at UGA.
Includes:
● 1 night hotel stay on UGA campus
● meet and greet with current Honors students, including Pope alumni
● college tour (personalized for Globez by UGA Honors Students)
● breakfast on day 2
● snacks at an evening Pope alumni event
● Lots of walking around campus for various sessions in topic locations
● Multiple short group sessions with UGA professors on various topics:
● Visit to Georgia Museum of Art
● Sharpen your research topics, get feedback from current college students/faculty
● Expand your collegiate & post-graduate resources regardless of where you apply.
● Even if you know you may go elsewhere, your graduate/professional school considerations begin here and may lead you back to UGA or a similar research institution.
● Grow fun memories with your Pope family!
NOTE: Price does not include the following meals:
● Attending field trips is a privilege, and parents will sign a CCSD permission slip. Dr. Bowen is the trip lead, but all three Junior teachers are planning to attend. Your professionalism and Pope reputation are on display at The University of Georgia Honors College. We expect you to participate respectfully and enthusiastically in this rare opportunity to meet professors and research fellows in such small circles of conversation; these conversations will require some preparation on your part, but we will help you with background info on the professors you will meet, making your engagement more meaningful. Field trips can be tiring, but we expect you to take on the long days with a sense of purpose, gaining as much as you can from this chance at mentorship. On top of that, it should be fun to live the life of UGA students (within reason) for a couple of days.
