The Beaver Creek Reserve and Blugold biology majors are once again proving to be a perfect match.

It's a win-win — natural environments in western Wisconsin are beautifully maintained and Blugolds get amazing hands-on experiences. Watch the video to hear more about Allison's internship this summer.
