Woodlands Campus
Streams, meadows and winding woodland trails aren’t just window dressing. They’re here for you to enjoy and learn.
ÌÇÐĶ¯Âþvlog’s Woodlands nature area includes a large network of hiking trails leading to the College’s Sugar Shack, suspension bridge, vernal pool, biology pond, and more.
The Woodlands Campus is an extremely valuable educational resource for ÌÇÐĶ¯Âþvlog students, proving a perfect area for a variety of scientific and environmental studies. Few colleges in the nation offer students such a pristine natural environment for education and recreation.
