Britany returns from teaching in Alaska
I was teaching with Duke in Alaska by the Global Education Office for Undergraduates in Juneau, Anchorage, Seward, and Barrow Alaska. We taught about the biodiversity of Alaska and how the glacial geological morphology of the land can influence the plants that live there which in turn affects but animals we see there as well. There was some basic lecturing and lots of time spent in the field learning how to identify plants and what to look for in categorizing ecosystems and communities we find around us.

As part of a new lab tradition started last spring, we got together for this season’s picnic and hike in the beautiful Occoneechee Mountain State Natural Area. Here are some pictures of the event! It was great fun!
Because the photos were too spectacular to not share… HUGE thanks to Gaby for capturing this beautiful day!!

Over the weekend, the lab convened at the Eno River (an outdoor gathering for a change!) to celebrate yet another successful semester! Cheers to Spring 2016!
This year our lab has pledged to make sustainability an integral part of our daily habits. For more information about the Green Labs at Duke program, click here.
