WINONA, Minn. – Winona State University has built a 45-foot ropes course at its Education Village campus as an academic resource and to promote personal growth and development. Sport science professor Eric Barnard said the ropes course’s role is crucial to the university’s new sport leadership major. Planned for October, he said, is an open house that will invite participants to play on the high ropes, try a mountain bike skills course, and tackle the university’s climbing wall.
