Urban Term

In partnership with interested teaching faculty and community leaders, every other summer the CJR director coordinates an intensive cross-cultural immersion sociological and theological educational curriculum designed to combine praxis and academic reflection on the complexities of urban life while living and serving in City Heights, a diverse, low-income community in San Diego.

• The Urban Term is a total learning and living experience in the city of San Diego.
• Students will take three academic courses, live in the urban setting (City Heights), and work in a community service or ministry internship.
• The Urban Term is 8+ weeks long, May 11-July 8, 2012.

• Check out the Urban Term brochure and application.
