Washington State University is delighted to host two collaborative events for Northwest recreation professionals and students. Our theme, New Sights, New Perspectives on the Palouse, captures the idea of lifelong learning through the exchange of ideas and information by seeing and experiencing different outlooks and points of view. Our goal for New Sights, New Perspectives on the Palouse, is to offer a variety of engaging sessions for attendees that highlight emerging trends and topics in the field of recreation, while providing opportunities for networking and connection with other recreation professionals and students.
