Students from Oneida had a great time at the Dinos Alive: An Immersive Experience. They explored the exhibit through the lens of a paleontologist, took field notes, learned about the Jurassic era , walked alongside the life-sized replicas of creatures & participated in VR.



Many students attended the restorative Practice Empowerment Retreat at Union College this week! Making the shift from engagement to empowerment.
