In 2008 California Lutheran University launched a study abroad opportunity for selected students to study with dons (faculty) from the University of Oxford. Due to one year of hiatus during the pandemic, CLU welcomes the 171 alumni of the CLU-Oxford program to join us for the 15 year anniversary gathering. The original program founders, Dr. Michael Brint, CLU Professor of Political Science Emeritus, and Dr. Daniel Butt, University of Oxford Associate Professor in Political Theory and Director of Graduate Studies in Politics, will be recognized for their work in establishing this signature program. Contact global@callutheran.edu if you have any questions regarding the event.
