The Long Trip was revived in 1998 by Fern Khan, then Dean of Continuing Education, and Carol Hillman, a Bank Street alumna and former Board of Trustees member. Attendees to these "new" Long Trips include students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of Bank Street. The seventeenth of these trips, led by Abigail Kerlin, took participants to Detroit, Michigan in 2017.
Participants focused attention on civil rights, environmental and economic justice issues, educational inequality and the arts. They visited Wayne State early learning centers and Spain Elementary School, and spent time with activists from The Bogg Center.
