GHC Is Looking for Two Guys to Take Part in Our Wyoming Summer Geology Field Course

Only two seats remain as we prepare the final details and travel arrangements for the annual Wyoming Summer Geology Field Course. We have eight girls and two guys signed up so far which leaves room for two more guys in order to round out the enrollment needed for the rooming environment. This is the perfect opportunity for non-science majors to complete your entire science sequence. If you are looking for a summer course that is not only fun, has an element of excitement, combines class work with two weeks of travel, provides you with lifetime of memories, plus gives you the option of completing your science sequence, then you need to consider enrolling in the GHC Wyoming Geology Summer Field Course. Why Wyoming? Because some things can’t be explained. Only experienced. This field course begins with four evening classes at the geology lab on the Floyd campus followed by two weeks of field work in Wyoming. You can earn eight credit hours in natural science that features Geology 1121k and Geology 1122k. That’s enough credit hours to complete your science sequence for non-science majors. Travel to Denver, Casper, Thermopolis, Cody, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, Jackson Hole, Kemmerer and Ft. Collins. This course provides some of the most spectacular geology formations and scenery in the world. If you are interested, submit your application as soon as possible to hold your place. Class dates are June 10- 13 and travel dates are June 17-29. You can find complete details and the application at www.highlands.edu/wyoming .

Don’t just take our word for it, here are what some of the past students have to say:

“I went into the program an accounting major, but I came out rediscovering my passion of geology and the outdoors and ended up changing my majors to anthropology and geology!” Joseph LeFurgey

“I personally benefited from learning how we can get a snapshot of the past by studying elements present today. I never realized how the history of the earth is right in front of our eyes if we just know what to look for and where.” Beckah Hufstetler

“Personally, I feel like, not only did I enjoy earning a grade outside of the classroom, but it was more than just school or class. It really was the experience of a lifetime.” Kiston Dowler
