Domestic Travel | Barrett, The Honors College

Barrett Explores

Traveling is one of the best ways to develop an understanding of diverse places, people and cultures. Through travel, students learn self-sufficiency, tolerance, independence and resourcefulness. Barrett alumni report that traveling was among their most important, meaningful and memorable educational experiences. The Barrett Explores program offers honors students the opportunity to travel to major American cities, throughout Arizona, and to national parks. Each trip is specially designed to include educational, cultural and networking experiences.
