The Bob Carson Outdoor Fund started in fall 2012. Every year, BCOF gives all Whitman students an account balance of $150 to use towards the cost of outdoor program trips.
All students are given $150 for BCOF which allows them to go on multiple one-day trips or a weekend long OP trip.
The BCOF fund represents Bob’s passion for the outdoors, the incredible learning opportunities that exist outside of the classroom, and creating a more accessible and equitable outdoors. We invite alumni, community members, and supporters to support the OP by donating to the Bob Carson Outdoor Program Fund.
By giving $150 to BCOF, you support one students’ BCOF fund for the year! $50 supports a day trip and $100 supports an overnight trip.
Last academic year, 277 students utilized their BCOF fund!
