Tanzania Bound!



Here we go! For the next two weeks, nine students and three faculty from Berkeley Carroll will be in northern Tanzania. We will spend most of our time working with students at Banjika Secondary School, near the small city of Karatu, on the edge of the Serengeti. Students will be posting here regularly. What I hope you'll see is that this is not a typical "service program." Rather, it is a true collaboration, with BC students exchanging ideas about leadership and learning from their Tanzanian peers about local responses to global challenges. It's a model that's very "Berkeley Carroll," in that it helps foster the kind of critical, ethical and global thinking we value. We're excited to share our experiences with you!
