One of the most exciting aspects of Wittenberg University's Connections Curriculum is FIRE Week: Focused, Integrated, Reflective, Experience. During this time, students have a chance to engage in-depth with faculty, staff and other students on a wide range of topics.
For 2024, opportunities to study the politics of water in California; explore shipwrecks and lighthouses in Michigan; to consider the odds and history of gambling in Las Vegas; investigate the history of the Underground Railroad in Cincinnati; examine the question of leadership; learn what marine biologists do; to study Black history in Washington, D.C.; and get an inside look at the Clark County justice system, among other programs, filled the docket.
The possibilities are as rich and varied as the people at Wittenberg. Click here to learn about the exciting opportunities offered this year!
