Fall Break with a purpose. 🧡💙

Since 2003, students in English Prof. Christopher Fee’s First-Year Seminar, Literature and Legacy of Homelessness in America, have traveled to Washington, D.C., to learn firsthand about the realities of homelessness and work alongside organizations serving those in need.

Over the years, nearly 320 students have participated in this experience, connecting classroom learning with meaningful service and making an impact in communities beyond campus.

This year’s group is on the road again! Follow their experiences and reflections throughout the trip: https://fee2026fys.blogspot.com/
