The culmination of a course on sustainable development, the group traveled from Newark, N.J. for four days at the Kroka Expeditions farm in Marlow, N.H., before a four day paddle as a way to engage with the natural world. “One of our highlights is seeing the stars at night time,” said Luis Torres, right, a recent Rutgers graduate. “We just don’t see that where we’re from.” From left are students Richardt Morocho, Shampa Sydney, Sarah Delva, Karolina Leleniewski, Walton, and Torres.
