The West Eugene Wetlands Project has been created through generous allocation of resources at Rice University and the gracious cooperation of many people in Eugene, Oregon USA. The Rice University Humanities Divisional Computer Consulting Team, the Center for Technology in Teaching and Learning, and a number of graduate and undergraduate students have contributed to the project. Truthfully, all the individuals and agencies that have made the Eugene, Oregon wetlands project an amazing model of problem solving and consensus building have made this web site possible.

Originally conceived as a management communication simulation for Masters of Business Administration students, the rich collection of information made the site suitable for many types of academic and community problem solving efforts. The site is being expanded to serve additional academic and community groups at present.

We welcome your suggestions in continuing to improve and expand the usefulness of this site.
