Welcome to Venture
Alexander Astin’s Theory of Student Involvement: “Students learn more when they are involved in both the curricular and co-curricular aspect of the college experience.” From adventure trips, climbing wall and team challenge courses (aka ropes courses) with a dual zip lines, academic college credit classes, come get involved with Venture and get smart!!
Venture's purpose is to provide a variety of enriching outdoor leadership experiences via Adventure Trips, Low & High Challenge Courses (aka ropes courses), and the Indoor Climbing Wall. Venture also provides programs for non-university groups, including experience based training and development programs (team building programs) for business clientele.
If, after checking the website, you are interested in getting involved with Venture as staff, just email us using our addresses from the contact page or stop by our office in the Cone Building. (Look for Venture's yellow kayak attached to the exterior wall, pointing to our door.)
