Not many of the students on
our campus are even aware that
we have an Environmental Lear­
ning Center (ELC). The ELC is a
program that was designed to
show how land can be renovated
for human use while at the same
time benefitting the natural en­
vironment.
Located on the far side of the
campus, next to the arts building,
the Environmental Learning
Center offers much for the public
to learn, see, and do. The ELC
boast over a mile of gravel paths
through 3.5 acres of an en­
vironmentally balanced ecosystem.
Flora and Fauna have been
combined in a way to give the
largest benifit possible to both the
environment and public. Spawing
beds and still water pools are pro­
vided for fish, while under foliage

bits, squirrels, and birds. The still
water pools also create a small
swamp land, providing habitats
for numerous species of water
fowl and other wet land life.
Perhaps the pride and joy of
the ELC is its Birds of. Prey pro­
gram. This program, headed by
Dean Edwards, sports numerous
species. A few of these include a
Prarie Falcon, three Red Tailed
Hawks and a couple of Screech
Owls.
Every Sunday at 1:00, Dean
Edwards flies the Red Tailed
Hawk and the Prarie Falcon. The
public is invited to view this im­
pressive display. It is asked that a
two dollar donation be made
before the flights take place.
Going to the ELC is a perfect
way to get away from the campus
hub bub and relax for an hour or
so. If you have children, they
woul be greatly entertained wat­
