Natural history class goes to Baja for spring break 2017
ESS will offer the popular “Natural History of Baja California” class again this year, but in a slightly different form. The class will now count for the Natural Science with Laboratory core requirement, and will offer 5 units of credit. Otherwise, the format of the class will remain much the same: Winter quarter lectures on the taxonomy of marine and terrestrial organisms, the ecology of desert and coastal ecosystems, and the biogeography of Baja California--followed by a spectacular 10-day immersion trip over spring break, in which students hike, kayak, and snorkel to discover the region’s natural wonders.
