First and foremost, a big THANK YOU to all our spring 2012 QERC students, participating faculty, and naturalists who all contributed to making this years program one of the best yet. To our students, each one of you added a positive component in terms of your attitudes, work ethic, service to the San Gerardo community, and your worship to a life-giving God. To our faculty, thank you once again for your time, efforts, and exceptional guidance in providing above-average education.
