Feeling isolated on a college campus is not unusual - according to the American College Health Association, nearly 60% of college students report feeling lonely or isolated. A new student organization at Cedarville University decided to do something about it. Their solution? Get outside together.
Their desire for connection and love for the outdoors led to the creation of CU Outings, a student organization focused on hiking, backpacking, rock climbing and other outdoor activities. For its members, outdoor adventures aren't just about conquering new trails or climbs - they're a way to build a community and recharge mentally amid the demands of college life.
