RITU@L Retreat (Roadmap of Intentional practices for Traversing the Unknown @ Lawrence)
The well-established RITU@L program (Roadmap of Intentional Practices for Traversing the Unknown @ Lawrence) provides a space to help your transition to LU feel safe, gentle, and curious. Join us to explore the ways in which simple practices here at Lawrence (like journaling, meditation, cooking, music making, painting, walks in nature, and more) can help you balance your life at Lawrence. Learning to transform ordinary habits and routines into intentional practices will help you to feel in control of your days, minimize stress, and find pockets of peace even in the busiest of times. (All students are welcome.)
Street Art Squad
Make your mark on campus and paint a mural that overlooks Lawe Street! You will work collaboratively to design, create and paint a welcoming mural that is a focal point of our campus! You and your peers, along with help from some talented staff members, will paint the wall mural. Evenings will be a time to reflect on the day, relax and connect with some other new Lawrence students. (A passion for art & design and some previous art, design, drawing/pairing experience is highly recommended.)
Land and Sea
Discover the natural beauty of Wisconsin's beautiful landscape while exploring the great outdoors. You’ll travel to some of our most popular destinations within driving distance of the Lawrence Campus and experience hiking, kayaking, and other fun outdoor activities. Evenings will offer the opportunity to reflect on the days adventure, plan for tomorrow and learn from each other.
