Dear Alan,=20

Ecology Project International has a few opportunities that might be of =
interest.  We've got 9-14 day field ecology courses that partner high =
school students with researchers on projects in the US and Latin =
America.  Most of our students are locals, but we work with some US =
individuals and student groups, and we've got open enrollment courses =
available for this summer. If you've got students with strong interest =
or experience there are possibilities for extended internships.

Our website is www.ecologyproject.org if you'd like more information; or =
you can contact me directly.

Best regards,
Scott
