Wesselman Nature Society and the University of Southern Indiana have teamed up to collaborate on projects and programs at Howell Wetlands, a 35-acre restored wetland sanctuary. Scott A. Gordon, dean of USI's Pott College of Science and Engineering, noted only five urban wetlands exist in Indiana, making Howell a "unique living-learning laboratory and educational gem" that will provide enriched scientific learning experiences for generations of students.

Evansville's residents can only benefit from this collaboration and this will lead to further educational possibilities down the road for USI and other schools in our area.
