Community Studies Center

During the Steelton Mosaic (1996, 2001), students and faculty met with residents and workers of Steelton, Pa., to explore questions such as how to raise a family, earn a living and sustain faith in a community hit hard by de-industrialization.

This mosaic focused on migrant labor in Adams County, Pennsylvania, just south of Carlisle.

The field school program offers students a thorough understanding of health and nutrition challenges faced by people in East Africa.

This mosaic provided Dickinson students both the historical background and a hands-on exposure to a variety of issues, including participatory democracy, endogenous development, regional integration and sustainable agriculture.

This mosaic examined two of the most significant black liberation movements of the 20th century: the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa from the 1950s through the 1990s, and the African-American civil rights movement of the 1950s-1980s.
