Students receive course credit and benefit from exploring issues from a variety of viewpoints.
Coursework includes visiting rape crisis centers in Galway and Waterside; and a presentation from a women's shelter on their services, laws in Ireland and public policy around domestic violence. In Dublin, the group visited Pavee Point — a kind of Salvation Army for Travellers (Irish gypsies) and marched in Dublin's Gay Pride Parade.
