On July 25 & 26, 1998, Professor Burney Le Boeuf led a group of UCSC Alumni on an ecotour of Santa Cruz Island, off the coast of Santa Barbara.
At one time, the words "Santa Cruz," brought to mind a seaside town on the north end of California's central coast. But now, let "Santa Cruz" evoke the image of an island being taken over by "banana slugs:" one of the Channel Islands, in fact. You are invited to join fellow UCSC alumni from the Los Angeles area on an ecotour of Santa Cruz Island. Our guide will be UCSC biology professor Burney LeBoeuf, an internationally renowned expert on marine life.
