Parkside class, Racine River North collaborating

Through the Center for Community Partnerships at UW-Parkside, a collaborative project has been arranged to aid with the creation of Racine River North by engaging geography students in a real-world research project.

Students in Prof. John Ward’s geography class will learn techniques and tools used for data acquisition. Their findings will be used to create an atlas of the River North district with the objective of publishing a neighborhood directory promoting River North community assets and resources.
