Highlights for the Summer 2008
London Study Abroad Program
HST 401/501: "British Perspectives on the American Revolution"
Dr. Alison M. Parker, History Department, SUNY Brockport

We will tour the Tower of London, one of the oldest, most fascinating sites in the City of London. The White Tower dates from 1078 and most of the fortress has remained unchanged since the medieval era.
Students have the opportunity to experience the cultural heritage of London, including British culinary traditions and nightlife.

Attending a trial in the Royal Courts
of Justice will help us to see just how much of English Common Law the
Americans retained in their new legal system.

The Palace of Westminster is the site
of the Houses of Parliament. We will attend a session of the House of
Commons, which is famous for its lively debates.

Students have the opportunity to visit traditional European markets, such as Borough Market, pictured above, a scenic venue by the Thames River.
