Politically Conscious Globetrotting
Professors interested in hitting the road for research might want
to check out the Global Exchange Reality Tours, an alternative political education travel experience, operating under the model of socially responsible tourism. This year, 54 professors have already traveled to far-flung places such as Iran, Cuba and Afghanistan and returned
to the ivory towers with reports of life on the ground. Trips cost between $1,000 and $4,000 for several weeks, all meals, airfare
and hotels included.
A few examples are listed to the below.
