<p>My D went to France with a choir this past summer. Because it wasn’t a history class, I assumed correctly that there wouldn’t be any group prep for the trip. I made her watch Saving Private Ryan a couple of days before the trip, in preparation for the Normandy day. She cried, which (of course) was my goal. I couldn’t bear the thought of her walking along the beach and headstones not having an appreciation of what happened there.</p>
<p>Do we know the college student’s major? Because you could really tailor a trip to so many majors…history, literature, music, architecture, marketing/advertising/fashion, political science, etc etc.</p>
<p>Oh, another tidbit…the hotel in which Oscar Wilde passed away is still open for business (you can actually stay in the room [different wallpaper, I assume] if you have the $$$). It would be a nice pilgrimage for Wilde fans.</p>
