Our first full day in San Diego, California was full of activities and new experiences! Students equipped with scalpels made their first incisions, and the majority of the group stepped onto the Pacific coastline for the very first time. In the lab, students were able to identify shark anatomy in the flesh, while TAs guided them throughout the learning process, answering their questions, and ensuring proper lab protocol was followed. Later, students gathered on the beach for a myriad of activities that taught them about the importance of equal teamwork, open ears, and self-confidence.
