Eleven students from Ms. Katie Halvorson’s Environmental Science class from Cotter High School visited campus on May 2. They teamed up with five Environmental Biology majors (Paige Swanson, Erin Hettinger, Kayla Boetcher, Madalyn Bollig, and Mitch Plonka) to survey fish, invertebrates, and water chemistry in Gilmore Creek. The Saint Mary’s students were able to demonstrate their knowledge of environmental assessment techniques to help reinforce ideas and concepts the Cotter students were studying.
