Even though Charlottesville does not have a port, the University of Virginia is now home to the Semester at Sea program. That’s where students take classes aboard a ship that travels around the world. U.Va Spanish professor David Gies will serve as the academic dean of the maiden voyage, and Dudley Doane is the director of summer and special academic programs at U.Va. David and Dudley join Coy Barefoot on the July 21st edition of WINA’s Charlottesville–Right Now to discuss how program.
David Gies kept a blog during a recent trip he took to get his sea legs.
