LCW’s Exploring NYC Club Visits Lady Liberty
The newest LCW club takes a trip to Liberty Island and Ellis Island
This past sunny Sunday, the Exploring NYC Club at Lander College for Women—the Anna Ruth and Mark Hasten School arranged an exciting and enlightening trip to Liberty Island and Ellis Island.
Students met at Bryant Park and took a ferry out to the islands, where they caught their first glimpses of the Statue of Liberty. They toured Lady Liberty and enjoyed beautiful views from the top before taking their second ferry of the day to Ellis Island. While learning the rich history of the island, some students learned a little bit more about their own personal history.
The trip was a welcomed break between writing papers and studying for final exams. There’s nothing like spending a sunny day with great friends, exploring the best of what NYC has to offer, and the club is already looking forward to its next adventure!
