Dr. Lin "does mock digs" and "digs into the minds of students" or so they say. No bones about it, that is human bones, at the Prairie Museum of Art and History (Colby) students learn hands on CSI and archaeological excavation and recovery skills from a bone bed buried there, courtesy of the Museum. This Service Learning Project, among others headed by Dr. Lin, are ongoing for several years of CCC students and the regional community.
