A friend!
-Can you put it in your hand?
-Yeah!
Don't be rude!
Hi guys! My name is Gabrielle Fader,
I'm a second-year nursing student
and I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
We are just on our way to Green's Point Lighthouse
to visit the marine semester.
and we are just driving through St. George
On our way there!
*lighthearted music*
We're here!
So the students are doing a full semester
of experiential-based learning activities
both in the field and in the lab.
This is one of our core programs 
of our marine biology major.
so they're... they've been living
at the Huntsman for nine weeks
they have three weeks to go.
They're here with me today to work on
three projects related to
an adaptation course, 
adaptation of marine organisms
and so we're going to be sampling 
sponges, snails and crabs
from wave-sheltered areas here
As well as more wave-exposed areas around
the point of L'Etete
and we're going to be comparing the
morphology, the behaviour of the animals
from those different habitats.
Awesome!
I'm excited to get started!
*cinematic synth music*
So, Jill, you've been here for nine weeks now
How do you feel? How was your experience?
It is a lot of fun, it's a lot of
hands-on work
which is really nice, it's a lot of
interacting with what you're actually learning
and not just sitting down and
reading about things
it's actually about getting to experience it
So tell us about your favourite part.
Definitely the excursions, like the field work that we do.
Coming to places like Green's Point and Sam Orr Pond
and to all those places. It's a lot of fun going there.
So you do this often, where you'll come here?
Usually once or twice a week, depending on 
what we're doing that week.
Unlike these biologists, I'm getting a little cold.
So I'm going to head back.
The marine biologists have got a bunch of work to do
and they have a bunch of material, a bunch of crabs
and it was a successful day.
So I'm going to head back to UNB, and I'll see you guys later – bye!
Hey guys, thanks for watching.
I just wanted to explain a little bit more about
marine biology
which is one of the only programs of
its kind in Canada.
It is a four-year bachelor of science of program
that can be completed at UNB Saint John,
right on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.
The marine semester, which we just joined
is a 12-week semester program based out of Saint Andrews,
with lots and lots of research and field work.
we're very proud of this program at UNB
and you can find out more about it at the link below.

Thanks for joining me today guys, see you next time!
