GO Program
All Susquehanna students go off-campus for cross-cultural learning at some point during their four years. This requirement was added under the central curriculum adopted in 2009. Semester-length (GO Long) opportunities include destinations around the globe. Sites in South America, Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia are popular among Susquehanna students.
GO Short programs include SU CASA, an award-winning program that takes students to Costa Rica and Nicaragua to serve congregations, clinics, hospitals, and refugee and immigrant communities. The Hurricane Response Team remains closer to home, coordinating service trips to the Gulf Coast to aid in the post-Katrina rebuilding efforts.

Famous quotes containing the word program:
“[T]he Congregational minister in a neighboring town definitely stated that ‘the same spirit which drove the herd of swine into the sea drove the Baptists into the water, and that they were hurried along by the devil until the rite was performed.’”

“The cowboy ... is well on his way to becoming a figure of magnificent proportions. Bowlegged and gaunt, he stands as the apotheosis of manly perfection. Songs, novels, movies, magazines, and operettas have made the least inquiring of us well acquainted with his extraordinary courage, unfailing gallantry, and uncanny skill with gun or lariat. The farmer, meanwhile, sits stolidly on his tractor, bereft of romance and adventure.”
