The College of Design recently received a generous donation to fund a new study abroad experience in Rome, Italy for spring 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While finalizing the details last year, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to increase in severity, ultimately putting a stop to the in-person experience. But that setback ended up setting up the college for a virtual experience that brought increased accessibility to all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moving forward, Dr. Darius Arya agreed to host the series virtually, with plans to end the semester with a virtual walk-along tour. To date, several of the lectures have taken place over Zoom to great success. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
