Thank you for visiting the blog of the University of Minnesota's Global Sport Management class. For the next two weeks, 15 Gopher students and one awesome professor will be traveling through Italy and Switzerland. Making stops in Rome, Florence, Treviso, Milan (Italy), Lausanne and Geneva (Switzerland), we will be experiencing European culture with a specific emphasis on sport and globalization.
Today, we arrived in Rome after a long day of travel from Minneapolis to Rome (via Newark, NJ). Our hotel is located quite close to the Ville Borghese and after we dropped off our luggage, the group split up, with two goals in mind -- checking out the sites and staying awake! The pictures below show that at least we were successful in the former, as a gaggle of us walked to the Four Fountains, the Spanish Steps, the Piazza del Popola, the Fiume Tevere (Tiber River) and the Trevi Fountain. - Austin Calhoun, Ph.D. student in Sport Sociology
