Bringing Habitat on Campus



On Saturday, March 26 (Earth Hour day) graduating students from the Environmental Management Technician Program at Newnham volunteered their time to construct and repair bird boxes for the campus bird monitoring program. Supported by Faculty, administration and the Outdoor Centre, the students have been responsible for tagging, mapping, and repairing over 75 boxes on campus. The EMT students were part of a pilot course that allowed them to fulfill their traditional in-class environmental science class requirement with hands-on study using King as a living lab.
