March 4 – 12, 2023 — <\/span>Rio Grande Valley, Texas\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Mexico-U.S. The Border Studies Program offers its 2023 intensive during the Spring Recess from March 4-12, 2023 in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. This program is designed to give the students an opportunity to meet researchers and practitioners, including service providers, who work with asylum seekers and migrants in Texas and learn about their work, experiences, and challenges first hand. We are grateful and proud to partner with the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley and many local non-profit organizations to offer this program and learning experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The requirement to participate in the Border Studies Program is enrollment in Hub Co-Curricular 194 (which offers one Hub unit in \u201cIndividual and Community\u201d for BU students) scheduled for Spring 2023 semester. In HUB 194 students engage with readings, discussions, and conversations with academics and practitioners which will prepare them to participate in the Border Studies Program in Texas.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
