Abstract	This article describes how a collaborative program with a local university provides learning for everyone involved. On the coldest day in the winter of 2000, a group of dedicated, excited high school students congregated at a research arboretum to meet Kevin Czajkowski, a geography professor from The University of Toledo. The professor had invited the class (an elective science course geared toward juniors and seniors interested in pursuing scientific research) to participate in a project researching global change. The ensuing program built a relationship between the research scientist, students, and the teacher. Students have gained experience in data collection, the teacher has benefited from professional development in remote sensing technology, and the scientist has received assistance gathering satellite data.
