Alumni travel Program

Twenty-six members of the RIT community recently participated in the Alumni College Abroad program in the Tuscany Region of Italy. The group departed for the adventure on Sept. 12. Barbara Carney from the Office of Alumni Relations travled with the group, and Edward Maruggi, professor emeritus, joined the articipants as the faculty enrichement lecturer.

"We had a wonderful time," says Carney. "The beauty and rich culture of this area was astounding."

The nine-day jaunt included day trips to Siena and Florence, with educational tours and lectures though-out the trip. The group lodged in the classic Renaissance town of Pienza.
