Living and Learning in Costa Rica
Biology professor Dr. Tim Armstrong is coordinating a two-week trip to Costa Rica in June 2008. Estimated cost is $2,250. The group will explore Costa Rica's tremendous biodiversity while visiting rain forests, active volcanoes, and beaches, and examine the challenges Costa Rica faces in conserving its biodiversity. To better experience the culture, participants will stay with Costa Rican families and visit parts of Costa Rica that few tourists ever see. Space is limited and is available on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information, please contact Dr. Tim Armstrong at 587-7211 or taarmstr@adams.edu.
