Why you choose Stout - The comfortable size, location and the unique majors.
I would you recommend the Environmental Justice Learning Community to incoming freshmen because it is the ultimate learning experience for incoming freshmen. It’s the greatest way to unite people that share interest in sustainability. Being a member of the Environmental Justice learning community helped me start off college on the right foot, from success in classes to building lasting friendships.
