So why should you attend a field school?
Attending field school is a once in a lifetime opportunity. A field school does not even have to be in your preferred area of study. A field school is your opportunity to understand how archaeology and CRM works away from the constraints of a university setting. And chances are you will be working on some of the greatest sites in a region and/or the most stunning areas.
What field school gives you is an introduction (with credits!) to a different life. Even if Archaeology, etc... is not your final career destination it is your opportunity to experience something very few others have. And for those of you who stay? The professional relationships you foster in field school will still be there at the end of the line.
Make the most of it. Go for it. Tell your parents R. Joe said it is a good idea ;-)
