Allegheny River Scholars

Each summer, a hardy band of faculty, staff, students, alumni, advisory board members and guests take a trip together down the Allegheny River. The brainchild of Dr. Carol Baker, former Vice President and Dean of Academic Affairs, the canoe trip was instituted in 1997 to reinforce the Community of Learners philosophy of doing and learning together. Students sign up for the trip because it's fun and also fulfills the physical education requirement for graduation.
