A block away is exactly what it sounds like, a Colorado College course, taught by Colorado College faculty and sitting squarely in the curriculum of the college, but offered somewhere other than on our Colorado Springs campus.  While many on-campus courses may include local or regional field experiences, CC Block Away是一门课程，其中很大一部分课程在美国或世界各地的另一个地方教授.  这些旅行项目可以包括10天或更长时间的标准时段，或者它可能意味着, and often does, that the entire block is taught at a different location.  Whether it is in other domestic destinations such as New York, Chicago, New Orleans, LA or Hawaii, or an international destination such as recent blocks in Paris, Athens, Florence, Patagonia, Costa Rica, Tanzania, India, or India. 

Whereas some universities offer 1-course short-programs only in January or May, at Colorado College, 从9月到夏季的每个街区都是一个机会，让学生可以在校外选修一门课程，将体验式学习与从自然科学到人文科学的研究领域相结合, arts, and everything in between.  In a typical year, 赌博正规的十大网站在其8个小学学年中提供12-18个学习单元, so any time of year could be the time to explore the world through a CC Block Away.  

All CC Blocks Away are Colorado College credit, no transfer required, and all are taught by CC faculty and filled with your fellow CC students, creating a learning community that shares the experience with you.  It is a unique study away opportunity, perfect for both the new traveler and the experienced globetrotter.
