Well-Traveled Esri T-shirts

Math and engineering teacher Marcel Duhaime poses in his Esri T-shirt behind a sign pointing to the Djuma Research Camp in northeastern South Africa. Students and teachers from Hopkinton Middle High School and Bow High School in New Hampshire recently spent three weeks in the area helping to install ArcGIS for Desktop at Acorn to Oaks Comprehensive High School. In addition to teaching 30 South African students how to make and analyze maps of their area, the visitors got a chance to enjoy the sights while on safari.
