Partners in the Parks is an outdoor
experiential
learning program for collegiate honors students co-sponsored by Southern
Utah University and the National Collegiate Honors Council. In 2013 we
will be hosting
a variety of academic adventures at national parks across the country.
These
week-long projects include seminars led by university faculty and park
rangers
as well as exciting recreational opportunities to broaden participant's
understanding of the overall value of national parks to our country and
its
citizens. PITP programs are open to honors students and faculty from all
majors
and disciplines.
