Introduction to the Fourth ECU in India program

I am a professor of Religious Studies at East Carolina University. See our website here: www.ecu.edu/religionprogram and also here: http://www.ecu.edu/religionprogram/india/ For the fourth year in a row, I am leading a study abroad program to India. You can see the blog from 2006: http://ecu-in-india.blogspot.com/ and a photo gallery from 2006 here: http://www.ecu.edu/religionprogram/india/slides/ Our blog from 2007 is here: http://ecuinindia2007.blogspot.com/ and our blog from 2008 is here: http://ecuinindia2008.blogspot.com/ We invite you to follow the progress of our journey as 15 students, my assistant JT Pitt, and I visit some of my favorite sacred places in India. JT and I will arrive in India in early May and the students will follow several days later.

We hope you enjoy our journey.
