Eco League

Encyclopedia : E : EC : ECO : Eco League


The Eco League is a six-college consortium consisting of Antioch College, Alaska Pacific University, Green Mountain College, Northland College, Prescott College and College of the Atlantic. The consortium is unique, in that each college is in a different geographic area. Alaska Pacific University is in Anchorage, Alaska. It is the only college in an urban center. Prescott College is situated in Prescott, Arizona, making it the only southwestern campus. Antioch College is in Yellow Springs, Ohio, a small town near Dayton, Ohio. Northland, the other Midwestern campus, is situated in Ashland, Wisconsin. Green Mountain College is in Poultney, Vermont, a small town situated in rural Vermont's Green Mountains. College of the Atlantic's ocean-front campus is situated on Mount Desert Island in Down East Maine, directly nextdoor to Acadia National Park. Despite a wide variation in acceptance levels and academic ratings, all six colleges have strong programs in Environmental Studies. The essential beauty of the consortium is the ability to experience learning in virtually every major biome of the United States.
