Hi-

You posted this quite a while on the paleonet mailing list. I am interested
in this program (not for this year, but in future years), and was wondering
about the courses in paleobiology and vertebrate evolution. Any specific
information on those courses and the study abroad program in general would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
