A Screening of Student Documentaries

In May 2025, a group of 26 USC students travelled to Chamonix, France and Geneva, Switzerland as part of the study abroad course JOUR 509 Environmental Communications in the Alps. The students formed interdisciplinary production teams to make short documentaries about how the Mer de Glace glacier has been affected by climate change. Join for a free screening of these documentaries.
