LandSea 2026 Leader Applications now OPEN

Application DEADLINE: March 20th

APPLY HERE: 2026 LandSea Leader Application

We are looking for students to lead the incoming class of 2030 to K on the Landsea program. LandSea is an optional, outdoor pre-orientation program for Kalamazoo College students that occurs before first-year orientation. Over the past 50 years, more than 2,000 students have used LandSea as a way to acclimate to college life and build support networks before beginning their first term of school. We now offer three distinct trip options with varying degrees of length & difficulty to increase accessibility to the program. 

Student leaders are the backbone of the LandSea program, and we’re encouraging you to apply 🙂 Here’s what you need to know:

• You do NOT need previous outdoor or LandSea experience to apply to be a leader – we train all of our leaders to prepare you for the program you’ll be leading.
• This is a paid position and the time commitment over the summer varies depending on the position and program that you apply for. 
• Personal and professional development opportunity: the trainings & experiences gained as a Landsea Leader directly translate into the real-world setting once you return to campus & begin life after K. Helping you to build your resume and gain valuable working experience. Whatever your path may be after you leave campus, you’ll have a stand out resume & lived experiences to help you navigate the world around you

FAQ: You can find more information about the position on our website or by reaching out directly to Outdoor.Programs@kzoo.edu with any questions

You all are some of the best representatives to share your experience and guide the next class of K Students! If you’re interested in growing in your leadership skills, gaining opportunities to facilitate and teach, making new friends of your own while helping first year students develop bonds, sharing about your own experience at K, and spending time outside, then this position would be a great fit for you!

If you are interested in the position or want to learn more, stop by the Outdoor Programs office in Trowbridge Hall, or reach out to us on email or Teams as well.

Student Development coordinates shuttle transportation for students leaving for and returning from breaks. We coordinate rides to/from the Kalamazoo airport ($5), Kalamazoo train station ($5), or Grand Rapids airport ($10). Students can fill out this form to request transportation for Spring Break departures/returns and Summer departures.

• Please note that this is a volunteer-run program, and therefore we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate all requests. We do our best!
• Please submit the form as soon as possible after you book your travel to give us ample time to coordinate with drivers.

Contact studentactivities@kzoo.edu with any questions.

As Valentine’s Day approaches, we want to know why you love K. So stop by Stu Dev this week to decorate a paper heart and let us know what you love most about Kalamazoo College. Be sure to fill out our weekly survey and grab a delicious cookie as well.

Student Development is still collecting clothing items for the Winter Warming Station. Donated items can be homemade or manufactured and can be new or gently used. Items are available for free to students. Donated items can be dropped off at Student Development, 2nd floor of Hicks Student Center. The most needed items include:

• Winter Jackets
• Gloves
• Hats
• Scarves
• Boots

Stop by Stu Dev today for some great treats and perhaps a few tricks….

Join us for Trick or Treat around Hicks Student Center from 2:30 to 4:30 tomorrow! Come take a selfie with the ghosts and ghouls of Hicks.

Student Development is coordinating transportation for students leaving for Winter Break! We’re offering rides for departures from the Kalamazoo airport, Kalamazoo train station, and Grand Rapids airport.

If you expect to want transportation, please fill out the forms as soon as possible, even if you have not booked your travel yet. This helps us get a sense of need, and begin planning group pickup times.  Please note, if you are flying into Grand Rapids, you may have wait times while at the airport due to shuttle availability.

When we confirm that we can get you a ride, we will send you a link to pay to reserve your spot: $10 for a ride from Grand Rapids and $5 for a ride in Kalamazoo. This helps us cover some of the cost of reserving vehicles and drivers.
