  • WVU Leave a Trace
    Leave-A-Trace 2014 While the Leave-A-Trace (LAT) curriculum will always remain a work in progress, it is important to acknowledge those who helped form the foundation for this very transformational tool. The WVU LAT curriculum was first developed by Greg Corio. In looking at other university freshman orientation trip curriculum models, Greg found a wonderful resource through the Outdoor Action (OA) Frosh Trip at Princeton University. With permission from Rick Curtis, OA’s Director, Greg used the ideas from OA’s curriculum and established the first WVU LAT (2004) to include the following topics: WVU Info, WV Info, Diversity, Campus Issues and Health Issues. In 2006, when Forrest Schwartz began working full-time for Adventure WV, he significantly added to the LAT curriculum. Forrest, with input over the years from many incredibly talented students and staff, largely shaped LAT to become what it is today.
