The following events are scheduled during the quarter. Since a few require clement weather, it is not possible to give dates with great certainty. Each event will have a short take home questionaire about the learning goals. These must be returned within one week of the event for 10 points each. (There may be more or less than 6; points will inflate or contract.)
