Dr. Carol Day and Andrea McCann (13) on Mt. Monadnock

A beloved emerita member of the College檚 California teaching faculty, Dr. Carol Day is currently visiting the New England campus, where she is helping its associate dean, Dr. 91快活林 Kaiser, prepare the biology, chemistry and physics labs for this fall. While in the area, Dr. Day a renowned hiker, camper, backpacker, and trailblazer couldn檛 resist exploring nearby Mt. Monadnock, accompanied by Dr. Kaiser檚 assistant, Andrea McCann (13).

A Mt. Monadnock hike is one of many excursions planned for this year檚 inaugural New England High School Summer Program along with trips to Boston and a canoe trip along the Connecticut River   and Dr. Day and Miss McCann offered a very encouraging scouting report. 淭he mountain peaks at around 3,210 ft. and is located about 50 minutes from campus, writes Miss McCann. 淭he trail was a Level 3, which indicates a fairly challenging hike. It檚 a fun adventure that I know students will enjoy!

A few spots are still available for this year檚 Summer Program, on both coasts. All rising high school seniors are encouraged to apply!
