All members of the Colby community are encouraged to submit programming proposals to use Allen and Benner Islands. Programming could be in areas of environmental science, education, cultural geography, documentary film, economics, American history, art history, and many other areas currently not imagined. Programs should be sensitive to island history, community, and ecology. The islands are a collaborative community with all members helping as they can move gear, cook, clean, and leave no trace at the end of the program.
