FIELD WORK
This program is designed to allow the young scholars
to appreciate math and science for what they really
are, and that's fun, fun, fun, and highly educational
too.
New Yorkers live in the fast lane, but what is the
speed of water in a lake or river. Travelling along
the Hudson, these young scholars recorded the velocity
of the river from mid stream to the bank. At Bard
College, these young scholars collected samples of
animal life from different sections of the river to
uncover the mysteries of that particular biosphere.
The young scholars' work always took them at the
end of the day to the computer lab to write report
of their final analysis. However for those problems
that required not just thought but research, the young
scholars found themselves working hard in the Mercy
Library location on the first floor.
