Ecological Restoration in Action at the Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus
Restoration Club Engages Students in Caring for Nature
Every other weekend during the academic year, members of Loyola’s Restoration Club load into vans and travel 40 miles northwest of the Lake Shore Campus to the Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus (LUREC). They spend the day removing invasive plants and shrubs to restore biodiversity on the 90-acre suburban campus. Under the guidance of Professor Emerita Roberta Lammers-Campbell, PhD, club members gain valuable hands-on experience with ecological restoration work. They also build comradery with classmates and enjoy being outdoors surrounded by nature. Please view our video to learn more about their activities.
