Now, you might wonder exactly what the Semester at Sea is, so to answer a few basic questions, here are some very general answers:
-the program lasts from 4 February to 14 May
-there are about 650 students that will be aboard the former cruise liner with me
-there are 11 ports of call, excluding that of embarkation and de-embarkation
-Archbishop Desmond Tutu will be aboard the ship with us the entire time
-and lastly, yes, classes are taken daily onboard the ship, except while we are in port
I am taking 4 classes:
-global studies
-human reproduction
-psychology of women
-gender, class, race-ethnicity and social change

It is probably obvious by now, but in case you didn't know, I am currently taking part in Semester at Sea Spring 2007; the voyage of a lifetime. I will be sailing around the world for 100 days, stopping in 10 different countries. I would love you to join me as I circle the globe.
