This past January, a group of alumni, parents, and friends of Lewis & Clark traveled to Antarctica with President Wim Wiewel and Professor of Biology Ken Clifton. High- lights of the trip included crossing the Drake Passage; interacting with penguins on Brown Bluff island; and participating in lectures on climate change, biodiversity, and more with Professor Clifton. A few travelers even partook in a polar plunge!
Details about the 2023 Antarctica trip—as well as additional Lewis & Clark Travel opportunities—can be found at go.lclark.edu/piotravel.
Inspired by their experience, the Antarctica travelers came together to generously donate a total of $118,000 in order to create an endowed annual student research award focused on conservation and the effects of climate change. The award will be administered through the John S. Rogers Science Program. Thank you to all the travelers for supporting our students in this meaningful way.
