On February 1-2, the undergraduate students spending the Spring semester in Paris through the Arcadia/AGS study abroad program travelled to Strasbourg, in the Eastern region of Alsace in France. This was an opportunity for the students to see firsthand the EU political institutions, which they learned about in the classroom. They were given a private guided tour of the Council of Europe, the oldest intergovernmental organization in Europe and the one that brings together the largest number of European countries, with 47 member States. A Council staff member explained to the students the inner workings of the Council and the way it operates in connection with the European Court of Human Rights. This was followed by a visit to the Main Chamber of the Council.

The students also took advantage of this trip to explore the city, taking a boat tour, walking through the historical parts of the city and its picturesque streets, climbing up Notre-Dame de Strasbourg Cathedral, and enjoying traditional Alsatian food.

This is one of the two trips that undergraduate students in the Arcadia-AGS Study Abroad program in Paris do every semester as one of the ways to experience France and Europe beyond classroom learning. The other semester trip is to Nice on the French Riviera, where the students discover the regional characteristics of Provence and Southern France.
