Program Description: |
---|
The campus is in the middle of a wilderness. Students live in cabins that were built in 1929 to house the families of lumber mill workers. The classroom and library was once a general store in this small mountain town that now constitutes the OE campus. One has the sense here of stepping into a calmer zone in space and time. Courses are taught following the “block” method—one course at a time for 3½ weeks, with four blocks in the semester, earning 17 semester credits.

The campus is in the middle of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument of southern Oregon, set apart for its unique biodiversity.
The Sustainability component of the semester is incorporated into the students’ experience through electives in a lab science course in conservation biology, furniture making, nature writing, or social entrepreneurship, and daily agrarian hands-on experience (production and use of bio-fuels, hoop house gardening, poultry management for eggs and meat, goat husbandry, cheese making, and canning).
The OE is affiliated with Eastern Mennonite University.
