What a great way to use your talents. Nice work. Where is the mention of students from other colleges in the State who were serving in Peru at that time as well? I am sure their service was equally appreciated and rewarding.

The article stated that, "They dug 1,200 feet in one day, the length of four football fields." A football field is 100 yards long, not 100 feet. Four football fields would be 3600 feet.

A football field is 100 yards long. A yard is three feet. That means a football field is 300 feet long. Four times three hundred is twelve hundred.
