"Maymester" courses at the Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus

Immersive summer session offers fun, hands-on learning

Students have fun learning and form lasting friendships during immersive “Maymester” courses at the Loyola University Retreat and Ecology Campus (LUREC). For three weeks in May, students live and study at the 100-acre campus near Woodstock, Illinois, completing the equivalent of one semester-long course on an environmental topic. SES faculty members designed the hands-on courses to include field trips, laboratory activities, and plenty of time outdoors.
