Chaperoned by TASIS faculty and designed by teachers who know the locations well, the trips give students opportunities to see some of Europe’s greatest works of art and to learn frsthand other ways of living. Other travel opportunities in Switzerland and Italy are available throughout the year and contribute not only to students’ knowledge and appreciation of other places, but also to their sense of self-confdence as they learn to live with others in a new environment. TASIS students are surrounded by art, history, and beauty on their campus and seek them out through their travel program. Few other schools are so committed to high culture, and no others are so situated at the crossroads of Europe. Because of TASIS, Lugano’s “hill of gold” is a beacon of culture shining out across the years and throughout the world. 11
