- Description
- By far the largest nation in the world, the Russian Federation spans two continents, eleven time zones, and over six million square miles. Its geopolitical significance and cultural contributions to the world are as immeasurable as its vast resources. At Holy Cross, students can approach Russia in various ways and from multiple perspectives. In the Russian Studies Program and across campus, we offer courses on Russian language, literature, art, history, political science, and religion. Students join the Russian Club, meet the experts and cultural figures we invite to campus, go on our study abroad program, and browse the college's rare archival icon collection.
