Orion, one of the most prominent constellations in the northeastern sky, contains some of the brightest stars in the heavens and acts as a guide for travelers and adventurers. Similarly, the ORION Wilderness Orientation Program is designed to guide incoming first-year University Park students as they embark on their university adventure. The program allows these participants to develop bonds with each other and the natural community.
Students may also be interested in attending the Urban Service Experience program in Philadelphia, which was modeled after the ORION program.
