Alternative Fall Break Mission
Due to the Gulf Oil Spill, the U.S. is facing its largest environmental catastrophe ever. Unfortunately, what we have learned about the scale and reality of the oil spill and its impact has been minimal. The goal of AFB 2010 is to provide Shippensburg University students, faculty, and staff opportunities to serve gulf coast communities while learning first-hand how the region has struggled in the wake of recent hurricanes and the the oil spill. This blog is dedicated to our efforts to share what we learn.
