<p class="MsoNormal"><b>WRFI still has limited space and scholarship funding available for our 2016 summer and fall courses!</b>
<b>If any of your students are interested in hands-on, field-based courses, please share this information with them!</b> I’ve attached a single PPT slide and pasted a quick blurb below. We<span style="color:#1F497D">

<p class="MsoNormal">The Wild Rockies Field Institute is an off-campus study opportunity; WRFI offers academic field-based courses through the University of Montana. Our courses take place in the “Wild Rockies” of North America and combine rigorous academic
inquiry with cultural immersion and extended backcountry expeditions. Students join us from colleges and universities across North America and from a wide variety of majors; we currently offer courses in Environmental Studies, Natural Resources & Science
Management, Native American Studies, Geography, Science, and Philosophy. WRFI’s small group size and interdisciplinary curriculum offer students an exceptional opportunity to complement their coursework on campus with experiential education in the field.
