Botanic Garden Student Learning Opportunities VolunteeringEvery semester several students take advantage of the opportunity to work with plants and learn more about the plant world, as volunteers within the Botanic Garden. Students benefit from this relaxed yet practical learning experience. Volunteer schedules are tailored around a student's academic schedule. Student Volunteers can work individually or with other volunteers. Guidance is provided by the Botanic Garden Coordinator. Preferably each volunteer session is for two hours, although this is flexible. For more information, please contact the Botanic Garden Coordinator at cmcwhort@mills.edu or 510.430.2230. Student Projects Students complete exciting projects within the Botanic Garden for academic credit in various courses each semester. Examples include Education students who observe or present educational activities in the garden setting or Biology students who perform practical studies in plant diversity, ethnobotany, or mapping and database management. Opportunities for projects are many and can be developed to meet specific learning goals, including the possibility of academic credit for an Independent Study. To learn more, please contact the Botanic Garden Coordinator at cmcwhort@mills.edu or 510.430.2230. Student Clubs Student Clubs can also find opportunities within the Botanic Garden for projects and events.
