The Inland Seas Education Association has openings for volunteer teaching interns for the 2000 sailing season aboard its 77' schooner Inland Seas. ISEA's mission is to provide hands-on environmental and heritage education to youth and adults with the goal of enhanced stewardship of the Great Lakes ecosystem. Classes aboard are a mix of day and overnight programs. The crew lives aboard the vessel. The emphasis is on hands-on involvement of the students.
Subject material includes ecology, geography, history, seamanship and related fields.
Positions are available on a weekly basis beginning May 1 and continuing through October 6, 2000. Not all weeks are available. Arrangements may also be made for academic credit through your college or university. These are volunteer positions. Room and board is provided aboard the vessel.
