2011 Travel Photos

Soon, many of our students, faculty and staff will take advantage of Buena Vista University's January Interim term to turn the world into their classroom. This year we have really some interesting trips that I think you'll want to keep tabs on. One of those trips sets out to explore the historical and cultural roots of Dracula by tracing Bram Stoker's winged character's steps from Romania to England. Another trip will take BVU students to India to volunteer in helping children with developmental disorders.
