Due to the success of the Whitman in the Wallowas first summer, Miles C. Moore Professor of Political Science Phil Brick and Visiting Assistant Professor for Environmental Studies and Geology Ellen Bishop are gearing up to lead another group of Whitman students into Wallowa County once again.

This summer, 12 environmental studies students are going on a mini semester-in-the-west-inspired excursion. Whitman in the Wallowas, a new six-week-long summer program, gives students the opportunity to learn about the ecology of the northwest and to work with the Wallowa Resource Council on environmental issues.
