Kyle, 

Keep in mind that many colleges/universities will allow students to create 
an independent study project. So, get your photos/data in excellent shape. Some 
professor might allow you access to a rooftop or university-owned swamp land!  

Seriously, freshman years are generally basic, but who knows!? You've made 
things happen so far in your life, and I expect that trait will continue with 
you all your life. 

Cecelia

Thanks Jackie! You will definitely hear from me while I am in 
college, though not sure if I will be able to put a moth sheet up somewhere or 
just walk around at night, who knows. Great job reaching 560! 
  
Take care, 
Kyle

Congratulations, Kyle 
That's a lot of identified species.  I dawdled towards 
the end, but ended up with 560 spp of moths.  A good base to build on. 
 Hope to hear from you while you're at school; you'll still be scoping for 
moths on campus, I know it :-)
