Have any of your stats classes taken you into the mountains? And as for not learning anything, PRT u33 taught me lessons that will stay with me for the rest of my life. Let's face it, I'm a hell of a lot more likely to go fly-fishing or backpacking after college than I am to read a research report about the psychology of children who wet the bed. Students are surrounded by a bounty of natural recreation. I see so many students cramming in classes late in their academic careers just to satisfy credit requirements. Why not actually learn something enjoyable and spend some time in the outdoors in those classes? It's a shame if you attend the U and don't take advantage of any of these great classes. Want to enjoy the winter? Take PRTS 1420 next spring and learn to ski. How about when the snow melts? PRTL 1230 will teach you to rock climb. Not many universities can teach students kayaking, ice climbing, ski mountaineering and a slew of other outdoor activities. My advice: Take advantage of the mountains and rivers the U's location blesses us with and take a PRT class. j.bullinger@ chronicle.utah.edu continued from Page 6 my hands, and I had no idea a sleeping bag could be stuffed into a backpack. So, by simply signing up for the class, I made a commitment to learn something new. Then there was the actual practicum. The class took place about a mile or two downstream from the Flaming Gorge Dam on the Green River. I shouldered my 80-pound pack (my first lesson—pack light) and trudged off toward the campground. Once we set up camp, we went over the basics of fly-fishing. I learned how to select flies, roll- and backcast, tie leader to line, all the basics. Finally, we were sent into the river. I'd love to be like most fishermen and say I hooked a massive trout. But I didn't. Not even a bite. You'd think a day spent in a damn cold river casting hundreds of times to no avail would not be enjoyable—but the trip was a blast. This is the value of PRT outdoor courses. No, I didn't catch a fish, but now I can rent a fly rod and backpack and go to a stretch of river and at least look like I know what I'm doing.
