College Break On Top Of The World

Wikimedia

Not every college student spends breaks from classes on the beach. 

In fact, a group from Southern Oregon University got ready for the current academic year by spending three weeks at "the roof of the world" -- in Nepal. 

The trip was something of a joint venture of SOU's Civic Engagement and Outdoor Adventure Leadership programs. 

An instructor who made the trip visits the studio with highlights of the Nepal visit.
