Spring break is a great time for fun with friends. But what about using spring break to try something new? Here is a list of trips through UW-L associated groups and programs that are sure to bring you new fun, friends, and of course adventure!

Southeast Adventure Trip (Talladega National Forest)

On a trip that involves whitewater rafting, hiking and backpacking, the Outdoor Connection through the UW-L Rec Center offers a trip for those who love to soak up some of nature's finest. You can retreat from school, warm up a bit since you'll be in Alabama, and take in some breathtaking views. A trip very worthy of considering.

Big Break

What's the best way to combat the cold, snowy weather? To retreat where it's warm! Come down to Panama City Beach to participate in Big Break, a spring break and conference event put on by Cru. Have a fun time soaking up the beach, growing in your faith, and making lots of new friends in this upbeat conference.

Trips Through FOCUS

Take a Spring Break Mission trip and go abroad with FOCUS to a variety of locations such as El Salvador (pictured), Mexico City, New York City, Israel, and Haiti. The opportunities are endless!

Other Ideas/Locations

If UW-L doesn't have a trip that stands out to you, check out these ideas!

Daytona Beach

Ranked as the Number 1 "Best Cheap Spring Break Location" by US News and World Report Travel, Daytona Beach is historic and won't disappoint. The hotels are deemed affordable, and it's also a very popular location for other college students on break.

Myrtle Beach

Take a trip East out to South Carolina and soak up the warmer weather with some incredible views at Myrtle Beach. With plenty of tourist attractions and events, Myrtle also boasts to be the "Mini Golf Capital of the World".

Yellowstone National Park

A bucket list location for anyone who appreciates the wonders of nature, Yellowstone National Park has many experiences and views to offer. From the majestic mountains to buffalo crossing the road in front of you to geysers and hot springs, Yellowstone is a classic destination sure to leave you with lots of memories.

Grand Canyon National Park

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
