Glenn Sherwin
02/29/12
Glenn Sherwin is currently on a semester-long National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) trip in Baja California, hiking, sea kayaking & sailing. The only contact with family and friends has been a one-time letter, sent by snail-mail. She reports that the curriculum is simultaneously challenging and inspiring, and the scenery is breathtaking. According to the NOLS instructors, "there are 3 levels of fun. Level one fun is simply easy fun where everything goes your way. Level two fun is when it's still fun, but some crazy stuff happens and it is fun to talk about later. Level three fun is downright bananas and potentially life-threatening." She has experienced all but a full-on-level-three, and is thriving on the challenge in much the same way as her time at Oxbow pushed her to find her potential and live into it!
Megan Landau
02/29/12
Megan Landau is happily working away in the Fashion Design program at Parsons NYC. She's not getting a lot of sleep, but loving it all the same. She mentioned that Oxbow and her experiences here helped her adapt to the Parsons life and shape her design style, love for hard work and passionate art. There are about five other girls from Oxbow's OS19 semester that either go to Parsons or live in New York City. She keeps in contact with the special friends made at Oxbow, friends that she'll always have and love. The accepting and creative energy on the Oxbow campus was infectious and it was the first time she felt like being absorbed by art was not unusual or out of place. Being comfortable as an artist never felt right until Oxbow and she's not sure she would have transferred to Parsons if she hadn't had Oxbow as an experience to support her decision. She wrote to tell us how much our school really does affect people's lives.
