To prepare for their global studies excursion on July 29, the level-three students are studying rain forest ecology, chemistry of soil samples, marine and rain forest ecology and atmospheric chemistry. The grant will cover a portion of the expenses. The week-long trip will include observations of plants, rain forest samplings, and soil, air and water samplings. To complete the program, students will give oral presentations based on what they have learned. For tickets, call 2770.
