Abstract

"this just in" piece on a group of 18 students and two professors from the University of Southern Maine (USM) who boarded a plane for Havana, Cuba, on June 23. The group is traveling with the permission of the U.S. Treasury Department, which issues Cuban travel permits almost exclusively to academics, politicians, journalists, religious groups, humanitarians, and Cuban Americans. The USM students have signed on to a two-week, 6-credit course at the Universidad de la Habana dealing with all things Cuban. This is the first time a University of Maine school has offered a class in Cuba.
