Ericson's zo-ology class made a successful excursion to the Chesapeake Bi-ological Laboratories at Solo-mon's Isand on the weekend of September 27-29. The purpose of the expedition was to collect a variety of salt, brackish, and fresh water fish in order to supplement the College stock. The trip proved to be pro-ductive in two ways: many species of fish were collected and the students gained invalu-able first hand field experience. The group worked closely with Dr. Frank Schwartz, Chesa-peake's head biologist and one of the top biologists on the East Coast, learning the Lab opera-tions and the latest acquatic research. "
