This summer's L4HSU (LifeLong Learning Lounge) has truly become a community event. Partners from the Master Gardners of Humboldt and Del Norte Counties, Sequoia Park Zoo, plus on-campus departments like the Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Human Resources, Extended Education, and more, have joined the HSU Library to host free virtual workshops under the theme Building Bridges & Connecting Communities, June 15th-August 7th
Have an idea for a workshop? Proposals are still being accepted! Past events have included book circles, film screenings, technology trainings, racial equity workshops, games, and rock painting. L4HSU@humboldt.edu will provide tech help and set up Zoom sessions, plus help you get the word out!
Check the calendar as new workshops are still being added.

We invite you to help us with this Student Tourism &Travel Guide project!
Celebrating tourism and travel during the current crisis is challenging because it’s critical to stay at home, but celebrating tourism from home can be very worthwhile. Our project goal is to make it easy for HSU students and visitors to find information about our area. This goal has become increasingly important to help the future economic recovery for our area. An article written by Shomik Mikherjee entitled “Millions of dollars lost: Humboldt County tourism industry waiting out COVID-19" in the Times-Standard on April 12, 2020, shares that Humboldt County lost over $29 million in business revenue, lost 1,693 jobs, and 11 local businesses due to the pandemic (as of published date). HSU Library Scholar Interns tourism and travel research can help our economic recovery and you can, too.
Interested in helping? Add your reviews of places you know and love to celebrate Tourism & Travel Week. Here are some tips for sharing information that helps us all discover and grow to love Humboldt County:
Use your social media to share information about your favorite sights with the tag #TourismHumCo this helps us gather information for our guide. Add #spiritoftravel #nttw20 to participate in the national celebration.
Consider adding information or your reviews for some of the favorites shared by students by taking the Tourism & Travel HumCo Challenge. Go to Student Tourism & Travel Guide for more information about the project and how you can help by adding reviews, photos, and tags.
