常见问题

i. Who SHOULD apply to 海洋生物营?
This camp is an excellent fit for curious students that enjoy science, those who may be interested in studying marine science in college, and students who enjoy being in and on the water and discovering what’s in it. RWU的海洋生物夏令营是一个引人入胜的体验，旨在让高中生接触到RI及其周围的丰富多样的海洋生物, 通过学习海洋学和海洋生物学的标准采样和观测方法. 学生将参加与RWU海洋生物学专业一年级学生学习活动类似的实地和实验室活动. 在大多数日子里, 上午和下午有实地和/或实验室活动(休息吃饭), which are followed by guest lectures from RWU's expert marine scientists.

ii. Who SHOULD NOT apply to 海洋生物营?
这个夏令营不适合那些在水周围感到不安或对科学没有真正兴趣的学生, or marine biology more specifically.

Please note campers sometimes report that, “My parents made me do this.对那些学生来说, 海洋生物学 camp rarely resonates in the ways that parents might be hoping. Please consider the interest of your child before signing them up for this camp; if they are not interested, please refrain from taking the space of another camper with genuine interest, 并创造了一个本可避免的挑战环境，影响了其他营员的体验.

If you have questions or your child is uncertain, 请和Brian Wysor谈谈, 教师 Director and Chair of the Department of Biology, 海洋生物学 & 环境科学@ RWU (bwysor@subjectboard.com; 401-254-3014) because this camp is a great way to evaluate interests in the field of marine biology, 当然，我们希望它能激励学生们去追求他们的激情和好奇心.

3. Can you help my camper get to RWU from the airport?
No. RWU不提供往返机场的交通支持，也不能在他们注册的营地的特定日期之外为学生提供住宿. Note, most parents/guardians drop off their camper themselves.

iv. Are international students eligible to participate?
RWU does not restrict this experience to American Citizens, 但我们认识到，协调国际参与者的旅行比协调驾车抵达的参与者要复杂得多. RWU不提供往返机场的交通支持，也不能在他们注册的营地的特定日期之外为学生提供住宿. RWU海洋生物学项目只在夏令营期间支持营员，而不是在夏令营开始前或正式结束后的任何时间, 欢迎你的申请.

v. What happens if a camper tests positive for COVID?
我们对COVID可能影响营地体验的可能性持现实态度，同时我们有信心能够提供安全和充实的体验, 我们将对因COVID或其他健康和安全问题而导致的变化保持透明. 概述RWU COVID政策在这里.
