<p>About study group participation, about 2/3 of Colgate students currently participate and a small number do choose programs sponsored by other schools. That’s going to change soon and I imagine the numbers going on these study groups- abroad and in the US- will increase. </p>
<p>Last week the Faculty last week approved a measure that opens up about 40 new study group approved programs to complement the 20 Colgate study groups led by our own professors. You would pay Colgate fees and get credit and Colgate financial aid. The benefits would appear to be better program quality control, ease of administration and more choice. </p>
<p>There are also extended study opportunities which basically are 3-4 week engagements after the semester ends for students who would prefer something shorter than the full semester study group.</p>
