Wilderness Solo

This eight—day wilderness camping retreat, which includes a three—day solo, is designed to mark a transition in the student’s program through an integration of learning, connections to land and place, and a solo experience. In a context of solitude and deep connection with nature, the course seeks to integrate the first year of learning, assisting students in finding a path, clarifying responsibility in reciprocity with the earth, and illuminating the heart of service to the community. Community work and ritual surround and support this important solo experience. Must be taken in the summer between the first and second years of the program. Course fee. Required for EL MA.
