Field Course with ISER Caribe
Erin Eggleston and Eric Moody developed a field course with the non-profit organization ISER Caribe focused on studying the connections between land and coral reefs.
In the course, ten Middlebury students stayed in Lajas, PR during the 2025 winter term and traveled around the island to learn about how land use change affects water quality and coral reef ecology as well as the approaches that local organizations are taking to restore coral reefs and protect environmental resources. This course was made possible by the generous support of an anonymous donor.
