holocaust ovenProfessor Richard Gair, a scholar of Holocaust history, will be leading this 9-day study tour throughout Poland with visits to Krakow and the historical sites that trace Judaism back through the centuries. You will visit Oscar Schindler's Factory and Plaszow Concentration Camp where Schindler's List was filmed. A full day of study will be spent at Auschwitz-Birkenau, the site of the most infamous Nazi death camp as well as a visit to Majdaenk and Treblinka death camps and other Holocaust related sites.

This study trip is opened to anyone 18 years or older but preference will be given to Professor Gair's Holocaust Studies students. Knowledge of the Holocaust will be needed to maximize the learning students gain from this trip. That prior knowledge can come from other Holocaust related studies other than Professor Gair's course.
