Phyllis Betz and her First Year Odyssey class recently took a tour of the Fairmount Mansions as part of their Philadelphia experience.

Museum-trained guides conducted tours of the restored historic 18th and early 19th century mansions. A tour of Cedar Grove was followed by a driving tour of the rest of the Fairmount Mansions.

The "First Year Odyssey" (FYO) refers to the one credit program which introduces freshmen to La Salle University and the city of Philadelphia through activities such as field trips and campus wide programs.
