Have ideas for Grad School Trips or Cultural Events?
We have space in our Fall programming calendar for group trips to graduate schools or cultural events. (These would be completely covered by our grant at no expense to scholars.) If you have suggestions for institutions within an hour from Rochester or any local events/places to visit this semester, please let us know! We are planning for a trip to Seneca Park Zoo on September 15 and a trip to Letchworth Park on October 20. Where else do you want to go?
