This summer, we will investigate a roughly half-mile by 20 mile
area encompassing the path Corte's followed when he entered the
Aztec capital. This area is well documented and we will be able
to consider its present characteristics as a consequence of the
city's social, economic and cultural evolution. Complementing
the fieldwork experience, the lecture-seminar course will present
the efforts of scholars, planners and political leaders to
understand Mexico City and explore its future.
The cost of the six-week program is $2,650. This includes eight
Tulane University undergraduate credits, housing accommodations
with a Mexican family, breakfasts and laundry, medical insurance
and field trips. For further information, contact Professor
