The 2003 Mexican Migration Mosaic worked with communities in Adams County, Pennsylvania and Perib\u00e1n in Michoac\u00e1n, Mexico&#8211;communities which lie on opposite ends of the continent, but stand closely connected through family, work and circular migration. Through intensive fieldwork and internships, students came to better understand the economy and culture, living and labor conditions, and lives of people in both regions. Students had the opportunity to pick apples in the Adams County orchards, visit migrant worker camps, teach ESL in school classes and after-school programs, intern in migrant Headstart programs and day care centers, work with health clinics, and interview growers and advocacy groups in Adams County. In Perib\u00e1n, students were involved in ethnographic fieldwork and interviewing families of migrant workers and people who have settled in Adams County. Both were full-semester Mosaics involving 18 and 23 students respectively taking 4 courses with either 2 &#8211; 3 faculty. (Faculty 1998, Anthropology and American Studies; 2001, Anthropology, History,and Sociology; coursework counted in Latin American Studies, Spanish, History, Anthropology, Sociology, and American Studies).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www2.dickinson.edu\/departments\/commstud\/mosaic\/index.html\">Click here<\/a>\u00a0to link to our 1998 and 2003 Mosaic information!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is a Mosaic?
