ECOEE Traveling to Canada and Mexico

As the Fall semester began,
the Environmental Conservation and Outdoor Education Expedition (ECOEE) program left on its 2009 adventure. The group of 12 students led by WIU's Recreation, Park and Tourism Administration Instructor Jeff Tindall, will travel to Canada, the Western United States, and Mexico over the next three months.
 
Developed in 1976, within the Department of RPTA, the ECOEE program supports professional preparation in outdoor leadership through  
experiential education.
