It’s Fall and the Chesapeake Semester’s back at it! This year’s Orientation week took us to the campus of the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, MD where students received behind the scenes tours with Education Program consultant Robert Forloney, museum curator, Pete Lesher, and a special exhibit tour with Chesapeake Bay photographer David Harp.
