We had a splash with Dan Ippolito as our stream ecology professor a couple weeks ago. Hailing from the far away Indiana, Dan did a great job helping us explore our own turf with field trips to the Blue Duck Stream, the Puhi Puhi River, and Luke Creek. Our eyes were opened to a new world of macroinvertebrates, inside deposition, and tests to determine pH, water hardness, and dissolved oxygen content. We had a great week getting our gum boots wet and our hands dirty as we got to experience in the field, what we were learning in the classroom.
