* March 1 FIELD RESEARCH

The Earthwatch Teacher Fellowship offers educators opportunities to participate in two-week expeditions throughout the world during the summer of 2000. The program is sponsored by more than 40 corporations and administered by Earthwatch, a nonprofit group supporting scientific field research worldwide. Educators work side by side with expedition researchers; field research is multidisciplinary, so all full-time teachers are eligible. Counselors and administrators may also apply. Each fellow is eligible for funding to cover part or all of the expedition. For more information, contact: Brian Barry, Education Awards Manager, Earthwatch, 680 Mt.
