After Latvia has joined the EU, all the positive social and economic changes make us to believe that students' personalities will be developed in the same positive way. Of course it should be admitted that any changes in young personalities can be strongly affected by the university study course, its aims and content. Joining the EU allowed many Latvian students to use the possibility of studying and working abroad, and many of them are already using this chance not even thinking about the future of their native region. The majority of LUA students come from province as do many more from other higher schools but they differ from other higher schools but they differ from the previous generations with their more dynamical and free vision and more constructive actions. At the same time the idea of students' responsibility and upbringing their sense of affiliation to their native regions becomes more relevant. We investigated students' awareness of responsibility and civil maturity. The attention was paid to the development of students' patriotic attitudes during the acquisition of the course of studies at the institution of higher education. It is very important how a student's matured personality was developed. Love to the motherland was emphasized in Latvian pedagogy in pre-war years, but in our higher schools the idea of patriotic upbringing still remains at the very low level or sometimes does not even exist. The main objective for the higher schools management is initiating this process overwhelming student's drift away from their native district. The innovating rural tourism course for higher schools can be regarded as one of the possible instruments of patriotic upbringing.
