Hello L&C Students! Winter is here, and Spring Break is right around the corner!
College Outdoors trips are a great way to get off campus and enjoy the snow, relax at the coast, or learn a new skill. Winter trips include snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, coast hikes, and yurt overnights. After Spring Break, you can join a trip whitewater rafting, kayaking, paddleboarding, backpacking, or just strolling among the spring wildflowers. You don't need any previous experience, and we provide everything you need. Come join us!
No plans for Spring Break? Sign up for a trip with College Outdoors!
Trip registration is first-paid, first-served. You can sign up in person at the College Outdoors office in Fowler 239, or by calling us at 503-768-7116.
See you out there!

The final events of the fall semester featured actors from the Main Stage theatre production Into the Woods and dancers from theatre’s contact improv class. Learn more.
