And it gets better….. At this point, no one will fail the course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! While we can’t do April NPS extra credit not officially scheduled, there is still the UNLV extra credit (30 pts)…..1.5 letter grades on E2! And, the ~33% of remaining pts in assignments/projects should not be difficult with some effort
So this doesn’t seem so bad, does it? Exam 2 avg grades

Thank you for the feed back – your suggestions were heard and will be implemented -
Many good suggestions on what to add –couple people suggested condensing RC/prairie/objectives E.g., additions/expansions: Toxic ER, desert ER (4), stream/aquatic (5), other countries or tropics (6), wildlife (3), a lab, a semester, others So, on 4/9, monitoring will focus on effects on wildlife; 4/23 (last lecture) Jaeger returns – joint lecture/discussion on non U.S. wildlife restoration example; see next slide for hydrological restoration

Seminar feed back: 25 students specifically noted they liked them; help for grad school, other viewpoints; one said too long, another too short; 2 said scary; 12 said more structure, maybe break up in to teams – will do that for our last seminar. Exam questions: This time, no time to edit since moved back. Next time, will edit, highlight important topics.
