Student Introductions 5

Next up for our student intros is the Gingerbread House - Chuckling Chad and Zookeeper Zach, our resident redheads in camp.

Dumela! Hey, my name is Chad and finally I have graduated from UT with a degree in English. In the likes of Hemingway, I have found refuge in southern Africa! My appreciation and love of the outdoors was found in my youth when I became an Eagle Scout, and in college, the environmental literature I read from the likes of Rick Bass and Jack London grew my appreciation to what it is today. Furthermore, I am grateful to have the opportunity to be exposed to the geographical fieldwork as I pursue graduate studies in related fields. I am looking forward to the sunsets, hard work, statistics, and wildlife. I would like to thank Dr. Rapaport and the scholarship provided from them, and I would also like to thank my family, girlfriend, and Pearl St. Cooperative for there unwavering support during the entirety of the process to get me here.


Hi all! My name is Zach, I'm going to be a senior at UT in the fall. I'm studying Sustainability and hope to use my degree to make an impact on the world. Coming to Botswana is a really cool opportunity for me to experience a new environment and to learn new things. I'm very excited to get to see all of the wildlife that this country has to offer, especially hippos and elephants. I'd like to give a great shoutout to all of my friends and family reading this. I miss you all, and can't wait to get to see y'all when I get back. Thanks so much for all the support and prayers, especially from my parents. Philippians 1:3
