The annual Brussels-Lux Study Tour is a week-long opportunity for educators across the U.S. to learn more about the European Union. With funding from the EU Delegation and the U.S. Department of Education, K-12 educators and faculty teaching at community colleges and minority-serving institutions (Title III- or Title V-eligible) are able to gain first-hand knowledge and experiences to further their understanding of Europe and the European Union. Visits to EU institutions and other organizations provide an inside look at the issues facing Europe and the EU. Educators also participate in a day-trip to Luxembourg to visit the European Court of Justice.

Join the Pitt Pollinator Habitat Committee for a tour of Pitt’s pollinator-friendly gardens, bioswales and more. We will then join guest speaker, Randy from Bee Boy PGH, for a talk about an important pollinator, honeybees. Randy manages the hives located on top of The Porch and will talk about working with bees, what they do, and how he helps to care for them. A tasting of local honey will be available during the talk!

The tour will begin outside Heinz Chapel at 9 am and end with Randy’s talk in the Global Hub in Posvar Hall from 10 – 11 am.
