LWC meteorology students monitored daytime highs and nightly lows to analyze the proper time to tap a few maple trees on campus.  Students tapped the trees and monitored the sap production.  They then boiled down the sap to 219 degrees to produce maple syrup.  Students enjoyed the fruits of their labor with some pancakes and syrup.  Great job, Knights!
