UM-Flint History and the Wyatt Exploration Program<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Since 2009, the\u00a0Wyatt Exploration Program<\/a>\u00a0has allowed\u00a0History students in UM-Flint’s\u00a0College of Arts & Sciences<\/a>\u00a0to travel the world with their faculty\u2014at almost no cost to the students themselves.<\/p>\n

The program is funded from\u00a0a\u00a0generous bequest made by\u00a0Dr. Dorothea E.\u00a0Wyatt, the first chair of the\u00a0Department of History<\/a>\u00a0and one of the original sixteen faculty members of the University of Michigan-Flint (or Flint College as it was called in 1956).<\/p>\n

Each Wyatt journey is led by a History Department faculty member (known as the Wyatt Fellow) and explores a region and topics related to their field of study. Past trips abroad have been made to Poland, Japan, Wales, and London; others have explored topics closer to home, heading to the “Old South” and even staying in Flint.<\/p>\n

Both UM-Flint History majors and minors are \u00a0eligible to apply for the\u00a0Wyatt Exploration Program.<\/p>\n

When history major Monica Wiggins transferred to UM-Flint from Mott Community College, she was ecstatic to find out about the Wyatt program and its support for students. She said, “When I found out via email that I had been selected, I screamed, cried, and then said a thank-you prayer to Dorothea Wyatt. Having the trip paid for enables ‘broke college students’ to experience another country and culture that they might otherwise not be able to. It makes you a better informed person. You study these places and events, and then getting to see them first hand and in person is completely different.”<\/p>\n

A Life-Changing Journey<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Wyatt Program is officially announced each year at a\u00a0Kick Off Celebration. This year’s event, held in early September, included\u00a0talks by the 2015-16 Wyatt Fellow, Professor\u00a0John Ellis; department chair,\u00a0Professor\u00a0Roy Hanashiro; and one of the student travelers from the 2016 trip to London, Melissa Ormechea-Smith.<\/p>\n

Dr. Ellis described his trip as a transformational experience, and noted how special it was to see London through the eyes of his students, saying “that is an experience as a teacher that is irreplaceable.”<\/p>\n

Melissa Ormechea-Smith, a\u00a0student of\u00a0education and english literature, was also changed by her three weeks in London, England. It was her first time abroad and she was grateful for the financial support provided by the Wyatt Program. She noted that, while trips to museums, palaces, and the financial district were memorable, it was the chance to visit the resting place of Elizabeth I in Westminster Abbey that will really stay with her. Amidst awe-inspiring architecture and\u00a0while being humbled by the sheer weight of history, said Smith “I was brought to tears by gratitude for the Wyatt experience. In that huge crowd, I had a profound personal experience.”<\/p>\n

Smith is working on her secondary teacher’s certificate program (TCP) in social studies. She knows her experience in London will make her a better teacher and that it’s something she’ll share with her students. “I knew I wouldn’t be the same person coming home,” said Smith, “My perspective and outlook are forever changed.”<\/p>\n

The 2016-17 Wyatt Exploration Program\u2014titled “Germany: Land of Peaks and Valleys”\u2014will be led by\u00a0Dr. Chris Molnar<\/a>, Assistant Professor of European History. Said Molnar, “It is a great honor to have been chosen by my colleagues as the 2016-2017 Wyatt Fellow. Now I am excited to have a chance to share my interest in German history and culture with the campus community and to take a group of students to Germany and Austria at the end of the year.”<\/p>\n

Germany: Land of Peaks and Valleys<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

\u201cWhen people hear \u2018Germany,’\u201d said Molnar at the Wyatt Kick Off event, \u201cthey think of two things: beer and Nazis.\u201d With this in mind,\u00a0Molnar chose his Wyatt Exploration Journey carefully\u2014intent on showing his students that there are many more sides to Germany. He acknowledged the Third Reich and the Holocaust may be\u00a0the darkest spots in Germany history, but reminded the audience that they are not the whole history.<\/p>\n

Molnar plans to bring students to Nuremberg, Regensburg, and Munich\u2014focusing on the Bavarian region of Germany and its Alpine mountain range. They will also stop in\u00a0Salzburg,\u00a0Austria. Said Molnar, “The mountains have shaped German and especially Austrian culture, and so Wyatt explorers will also have a chance to head up into the mountains to take in the fresh air, breathtaking views, and traditional alpine hospitality.”<\/p>\n

Students will see the remains of a Roman fortification, visit the favorite seat of the Holy Roman Empire, cruise the Danube, ride a cable car to the peak of Untersberg mountain, and enjoy traditional fare at a variety of eateries.<\/p>\n

Continued Molnar, “Those who take part in this year\u2019s Wyatt trip will develop a much deeper appreciation for the complicated history and culture of a fascinating and beautiful country!”<\/p>\n

Wyatt Events for Campus & Community<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

To be eligible for the Wyatt Exploration trip, History majors and minors attend a series of events in addition to the required coursework. The events consist of guest lectures and fun activities\u2014most open to all campus and community members.<\/p>\n
