Experiential Learning: Wildcats in Iceland
| |
|
Dr. Melissa Holt, Associate Professor of Psychology; Dr. Sarah Reardon, Assistant Professor of Biology and Lab Coordinator; and a group of current Culver-Stockton students traveled to Iceland to study Environmental Psychology along with Environmental and Conservation Biology. Iceland is a global leader in renewable energy and sustainability.
Student Laken Hugenberg said, “Iceland is the land of fire and ice. We got to experience how they utilize their renewable energy resources at the power plant we visited. They go through a process called Carbfix and instead of releasing a lot of the gases like sulfur and carbon dioxide into the air, they direct it back into the bedrock and it helps to combat global warming."
Other activities included learning meditation practices at hot springs and waterfalls and whale watching to learn how sustainable tourism can combat the economic need for whale hunting. On this trip, which was described as "transformational" by Dr. Holt, students were awed by the Aurora Borealis, an unusual phenomenon for this time of year.

Not one, but two humpback whales! In Iceland, students were able to watch whales with a company that only approaches the wildlife on the animal's terms in order to cause minimum disturbance to them and the environment. The boats are electric, so the boat is silent and carbon-neutral. It is sustainable whale watching at its best! | |

Happenings on "the Hill" and in the Community | |

Hillstock 2022
Twenty years after the first Hillstock in C-SC history, this on-campus Saturday festival is still one of the favorite days for students, faculty, and community members. Hillstock sets the stage for a laid-back vibe that is perfect for gathering with friends to listen to music. Musical offerings range from C-SC students to professional musicians and artists who join us for the day of celebration and memory-making. The quad provides a backdrop for endless games of corn hole and building memories that last a lifetime.

Campus Programming Council
The Campus Programming Council (CPC) is a group of volunteer students who are led by Bill Boxdorfer, Director of Student Engagement. Together, this student group facilitates more than 80 on and off campus activities for students and the campus community. They are the reason events such as Superbowl watch parties, bingo nights, and Hillstock happen. This is a group of servant leaders who are bold, think big, and create change!

Giving back to your alma mater directly impacts C-SC in many ways, from providing scholarship and program support to helping secure grant funding. This year, we hope to engage "22 in 22" by increasing our alumni support for programs, projects, and scholarships to 22%.
All gifts of all sizes to all funds make a difference for the C-SC community, but the Student Scholarship Fund has the most immediate impact on students and every contribution provides crucial scholarship support.
Thank you for making more than a donation. Thank you for making a difference. And thank you to all who have already made their gift.
