A Few Last Photos

It’s hard to believe that three weeks have already passed. As students fly home from London to Chicago, it’s rewarding to think back over all we did, read, and experienced, much of which never made it into this blog. Here are a few last photos and captions, know that there are hundreds of more photos, journal entries, and memories out there, to be shared with friends and family at a later date. Thanks for a fantastic course!
