Travel Abroad at Locke College

Locke College is proud to announce new study abroad programs!

France: Students studying in our Political Science major can experience the history of political institutions and dissect the problems of absolute monarchy while seeing the sites of Paris and Montpellier, where John Locke lived and worked himself. This is a semester-long program for College students in their junior or senior year.

Holland: For underclassmen looking to find their inner spirit of freedom now that they are on a college campus, four weeks in Holland between holiday vacation (after first semester exams) and second semester is a new and exciting program at the College. After fleeing France for Holland in 1683, our founder John Locke often looked back on his time in Holland with great nostalgia. The spirit of freedom and the "manliness" he saw there made him envious of this country that had become the center of political and religious refugees in Europe. Take a tour of the sites and visit Locke's home.
