Summer Wilderness Program Attracts Students One of the most unique, and most appealing, programs on the campus of B.C.C.C. is the Wilderness Program. It is headed by Prof. Paul Biays. Not only does the regular college schedule include classes in camping canoeing, but also the summer school schedule includes canoe trips to Minnesota Canada as well as back packing expeditions into the Rocky Mountains. More more students, both old young alike, are being drawn to Barton County Community College to take advantage of these unique offerings. Prof. Biays has led these excursions for the past seven years and hopes the program will be expanded to include more trips in the future.
