Hi all,

Important for all students going on the CA field trip. Five actions you need to take:

  1. If you are planning on attending the Eco Farm Conference please email both Steve    scheuers@evergreen.edu and Abir    biswasa@evergreen.edu  to confirm this fact. We need to make sure van numbers work due to the groups being far apart during those days. Today – thanks!
  2. Everyone on the trip should pick up a copy of Dirt The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth by William Bryant Logan. paperback edition 2007 or later. ISBN 9780393329476  Online it can be found for about $10   On the trip you will be telling faculty what connections you find between the book and our field trip experiences.
  3. Pay your tuition and student fees. Otherwise you can’t attend.
  4. Complete the field trip waiver form that will be handed out in class next Tuesday. No form, no trip.
  5. Consider becoming a van driver. We need a couple more students to get their Evergreen Van Driver Permit Card or we aren’t going on the trip. This is for real. Everyone should determine if they are eligible by viewing the permit info at http://www.evergreen.edu/motorpool/usepermit.htm  This link and the left nav bar have all the info. This process needs to be completed early next week. If we don’t have more drivers by Thursday we will cancel the trip. Please email both Steve and Abir if you can commit to doing this so we can help you make it happen.
  6. Smile, embrace opportunity and challenges, be well
