BOSP Trip to Jordan Concludes

Led by Professor Samer Al-Saber (Assistant Professor of Theatre And Performance) Stanford students participated in a Bing Overseas Studies Program trip to Jordan from August 27 - September 16, 2022. The theme of the short-term program was “Jordanian Futurities Between Ancient Antiquities and Performances of Urban Life.” As part of their experience, students met with local academics and officials, and visited the lowest point on earth (The Dead Sea), the ancient city of Umm Qais, the Red Rose City of Petra, Aqaba on the Red Sea, and Wadi Rum, known for its dazzling desertscapes. They were joined periodically by Dr. Ramzi Salti of the Arabic Language Program at Stanford. For more information about BOSP, visit >>>
