Take advantage of the university's close proximity to hiking trails such as the North Country Trail along U.S. Route 322 or the many trails in Cook Forest where one can go cross country skiing or hiking along freshly fallen snow when the weather cools down.
Enjoy your fall semester as a Courageous. Confident. Golden Eagle.
