Academic
and Administrative Exchange
The South
Africa Academic and Administrative Exchange Program exposes faculty, students
and administrators to the political, economic and social issues of post-apartheid
South Africa. The new democratic government of South Africa opens up a
wealth of progressive possibilities for Southern Africa, the continent
of Africa and the world. Students participating in the program will have
an opportunity to study at one of five universities within the Cape Town
area: (1) University of the Western Cape, (2) Stellenbosch University,
(3) Cape Technikon, (4) Peninsula Technikon and (5) University of Cape
Town.
Students interested
in the exchange program are also encouraged to take advantage of Auburns
newly established minor in Africana Studies. An introductory course that
students can sign up for is AFRI 2000, Introduction to Africana Studies.
This course is a critical and systematic study of the rich intellectual
and cultural past and present of Africans and their new world decedents.
Africana studies is a developing and significant field that is now included
among the course offerings at Auburn University.
