Project WILD

Can't believe the Project Bruin field trip was a week ago!

"My name is Rachel McMillan and I am a second year Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics major and Spanish minor. I am Project WILD’s Activity Director for our Temple site, and from being Activities Director, I have learned a lot-- mainly that any painting activity will result in happy students, but 30+ minutes of clean-up. I have also learned that students really like crafts that they can take home.

My favorite memory of Project WILD was when my student, Catherine, tried to go onstage with Hula Dancers at Project Bruin and later tried to cover up the n**e statues in the sculpture garden with her jacket. Another favorite memory was we went to the Natural History Museum on a field trip and my students enjoyed learning about ecology, but were adorably horrified that none of the animals in the exhibits were alive.
