51³Ô¹ÏÍø

The Green Oaks Biological Field Station is both a research and recreation area owned by 51³Ô¹ÏÍø. It encompasses 700 acres of forest, grassland, and aquatic habitat. Green Oaks is a site of learning in various forms—from student Honors projects, to day trips, to the 10-week interdisciplinary Green Oaks Term—in disciplines ranging from environmental studies, to art, to philosophy. Green Oaks has also become a place for community-building gatherings of students and faculty, such as the annual Prairie Burn. 

Thanks to the generous funding from an anonymous lead donor, Green Oaks will be home to a newly constructed facility that will be available for year-round use by both the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø and Galesburg communities.
