South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice

Dean Rob Wilcox went with a group of students to the SC Department of Juvenile Justice. Once they went behind the fence they could not take photos but he reports that his group "sorted" plants.  They were faced with  a truckload of plants that had been dumped in a pile.  First they sorted by what they could identify ( no real botonists in the group but one student from the Citadel seemed to have some knowledge)  They recognized the crepe myrtles and grasses and made quick work of sorting them.  Size and color ruled decisions for the rest of the pile.  It was a hot and sweaty job but when finished the group was satisfied with their new found skills!
