Why We Created This Program

The Eastern Passport is a way to:

  • Encourage students to explore and support our Willimantic community.
  • Build connections with new and returning Eastern friends.
  • Save some money while having fun off-campus.

This is the first semester of the Eastern Passport Program, and we’d love your feedback.
