STUDENT PROFILE “At the start of third year we had the opportunity to go to the Algonquin Wildlife Centre for field school. For field school we spent a week in class and then three nights in the field. My project focused on measuring mammals in the human and natural area to see if there was a change. We have field school again in fourth year, but it will be more independent with less help from our faculty. We can build on our project from third year or start a new project.”
