Burn All the Leggings Amanda Mull

On a Friday afternoon in early March, I felt an urge I hadn’t experienced in more than a year: I wanted to buy new clothes.
Outside clothes. Clothes in which I would be perceived, by others. Clothes to wear to a party. The late-winter sun had started to warm things up a bit, I was a week and a half removed from my first Pfizer shot, and those two facts combined to cause a flare of optimism so intense that I needed to express it in what has historically been my preferred manner of celebration: by buying some stuff on the internet.

Off-campus study perseveres at the Oregon Extension
Every fall, several dozen college students from across the country travel to Oregon to learn and embrace what it means to live intentionally while pondering big ideas through reading, conversation, and intellectual exploration. With the aid of its remote wilderness setting, the Oregon Extension Program allows students to take a break from their busy lives while exploring and working the land together.
While most off-campus study programs were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, St. Olaf College students enrolled in the Oregon Extension Program were still able to participate in that program during Fall 2020. Located in the heart of the Cascade Mountains in Lincoln, Oregon, students were able to learn while distanced from outside communities. Following a routine quarantine period upon arrival, this allowed them to experience a semester relatively free from the effects of the pandemic.
