Greetings, and welcome to this new site, Educational Resources, Inc. My name is Steven Derfler, a university professor involved in art and archaeology, intercultural, interfaith and interdisciplinary work that attempts to help us to understand the present and future, as we rediscover our past.

The first leg of this journey will focus on an upcoming journey, a Journey to Egypt, that will take place Jan 6-18, 2009. It is an incredible study tour that no one should miss.

No other civilization has captured as many hearts and minds of the world as ancient Egypt. Participants will by touched by the glory, mystery and mystique of ancient Egypt while visiting a modern civilization that has been created by the mighty Nile River. For an itinerary, costs and basic information, visit the following website.

This will be my 38th journey to this extraordinary land. Over the many years, I have "learned all the mistakes" on the way to putting together an wonderful adventure for the scholar/traveler. This all inclusive program includes much more than the typical "on-the-bus off-the-bus" itinerary. We give it all. It actually is reminiscent of the John Candy movie, but in this instance we use planes, trains, Nile cruisers, felucca sailboats, horse-drawn carriages and........... yes, camels!

So, we will go on this journey together, giving you daily glimpses of what takes place on a day to day basis.
