As part of the colloquium we take a number of field trips. These include afternoon trips during class/lab time, as well as three weekend field trips. Below we have listed the field trips for Fall 2001. We will post images from these field trips in the weeks following each trip.
For each field trip students must bring their Journal. You are also encouraged to bring a camera (digital, still, or video). You should also dress accordingly. We will let you know in class what kinds of extra supplies will be needed.
