Washington and Lee University's innovative 4-week, one-class Spring Term at the end of each academic year is interdisciplinary, intense, and anything but traditional. Courses are designed to be transformative learning experiences such as studying:
- the science of cooking in Italy
- reef degradation in Belize
- urban ecology in D.C.
- the physics of music
- code-breaking in mathematics and history
- the psychology of humor
- and many, many more.
Professors love teaching Spring Term courses because of the opportunity to expose students to new perspectives. Students love Spring Term because of the opportunity to do something they may never have done before.
