NATIONAL PARKS COLLABORATIVE STUDENT PROGRAM
Study in the National Parks.” This “J-term” educational experience similar to “study abroad” is faculty supported and eligible for earned academic credits. To make measurable impact, students will contribute at least one lasting capstone project to the park. Imagine being immersed in study and nature at Yosemite, Mesa Verde, or Crater Lake.
