Tour of Lone Fir Cemetery

Off campus (location not specified)Map

A 60-minute walking tour of Lone Fir Cemetery. Public parking is available; walking shoes are a good idea. We will stick to paved paths though you can venture across the grass if you want; in that case, be prepared for uneven ground and mud.

Rome: Exploring the City Through Water
What can water teach us about Rome’s past and present?

Join us for a nine-day, non-credit-bearing program exploring how water has shaped Rome, Italy, over the past 3,000 years. Discover how ancient aqueducts, baths, and fountains tell the story of the city’s development while exploring water’s role in contemporary Roman life.

Through site visits, walking lectures by archaeologists, and a visit to Rome’s contemporary beach scene, you’ll explore connections among water, history, art, and culture. Potential site visits include the Forum Boarium, Isola Tiberina, Baths of Caracalla, Villa d’Este, Castel Gandolfo, and Santa Severa.

Open to learners of all ages, this program is designed for senior auditors, PSU faculty and staff, and community members. It is especially suited for those interested in history, art, art practice, cultural studies, and the humanities.

Program Dates: September 6–14, 2027
