Making a study of the Vancouver Olympics

Twelve U of C students will spend their reading break in Vancouver studying the urban impact of the Olympic Games. They will research everything from the effect of construction of Olympic architecture on local businesses, the impact of the Olympic Games on the homeless population, the way in which protest movements are handled, and the influence of some of the most rigid security measures in Olympics history.
