Risk and Travel Management

The well-being of Morehouse students, faculty, and staff is the primary concern of The Office of International Education and Morehouse College.  Faculty and staff leaders are responsible for taking appropriate steps to ensure that travelers are safe and that an emergency action plan is created to respond to emergency situations.  To that end, listed below is important risk management and traveler safety information for all Morehouse study abroad participants.
