UC Davis students in Eric Schroeder's Integrated Studies honors class studied the Vietnam War and its affect on American culture during winter quarter 2004. Using oral history from Vietnam veterans, art, films, literature and field trips as learning tools, the students experienced a past that they will never forget and quality teaching that goes far beyond the classroom.
