Williams College Winter Study Travel Courses

WINTER STUDY 2013
TRAVEL COURSE REGISTRATION

Below are the WSP 2013 travel courses. Registration for WSP travel courses will take place prior to the registration for other WSP courses. YOU CAN ONLY REGISTER FOR ONE WSP TRAVEL COURSE, so think carefully about your first choice selection before submitting the form! In fact, you should not submit a form until you have attended the travel course organizational meetings that will take place during the first few weeks of fall semester when instructors will go over details about the courses. If you are on study away during fall semester, in lieu of attending the meeting, you should contact the instructor via email to get more information about the course. (Note: Students who plan to be on leave Fall AND Spring semester are not eligible to participate in Winter Study Travel Courses.)

If, after reading the descriptions and consulting with the instructor, you decide that you would like to register for one of these courses as your first choice for a WSP project, complete the attached form no later than 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, 27 September, 2012.

If you decide that you do not want to register for a travel course as a first choice, you do not have to do anything at this time. Registration for other WSP courses will take place October 17-21 via SELFREG. If you do not get your first choice and want to try to get into a travel course as an alternate option, you can only be added to that course with the permission of the instructor and only if space is still available.
