Settling into campus life comes with tons of things to do. Be sure to add âexperiencing wildernessâ to your list.
âThousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out going to the mountains is going home, that wilderness is a necessityâ â said the naturalist John Muir. Okay, so that was 113 years ago. But if wilderness was a necessity then, what is it now, with all the pressures of technology, social media, midterms, roommates, assignments, and internships?
This month is the 50th anniversary of the Wilderness Act, which permanently protects millions of acres of wilderness â and your space to exercise, de-stress, bond with friends, and experience the gorgeousness of America (and yourself) in different ways.
