This was a challenge to all, but it seemed to work well. I would like to buy 2-3 additional laptops. Our reprint collection and library continue to grow. We also need a few microscopes, but they are on their way. The accommodations in this forest are rustic.
Students share bunks and there is a definite blur between outside and inside.
I was delighted that students appreciated this rustic atmosphere. I heard no complaints, despite this being more difficult in every way than other parts of the field trips. Perhaps the students are in better shape and have different expectations by this time. The food was cooked by a local resident and was better than in the past. Depending on the match, students found this part of the program the best or worst component.
