Join WKU as we head to the great country of Costa Rica for 12 days of exploring.  The jewel of Central America, there truly is no country like Costa Rica due to the diversity it as to offer.  The Pacuare River, described as one of the top five rivers in the world to run, will be one the activities you will not want to miss.  We will also stop and view Arenal Volcano to see it spewing molten lava from its peak.  We will also be completing a service learning project for a local region to help give back to this remarkable country.  Time spent on the coast, engaging different cultural activities and viewing exotic wildlife are just a few of the things you will experience during this action packed adventure.  The trip is offered as a three credit hour May term course in conjunction with the Department of Kinesiology, Recreation and Sport.  Study abroad tuition rates apply ($50 per credit hour.) Numerous scholarship opportunities are available to help subsidize the cost of this amazing adventure.  Interested individuals should contact Luke Bartlett at 745.6542 for more information
