Information provided on the registration form is not shared with other parties and is used exclusively by the Office of Community Outreach at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi to notify participants of information regarding the Surveying II: Advanced Short Course or future surveying courses on the Island.

Lodging (Residential Registrants)
Lodging is managed by Camden/Miramar, located on the Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi campus. Nestled on Ward Island on the shores of Oso Bay, Miramar residence halls offer so much more than campus dormitories and is a short walking distance from the main campus. Each suite is designed with a private sleeping area that includes a twin bed, nightstand, and built in desk and chair. Each set of suites shares a bathroom while offering a private vanity for each guest. Additional amenities include a compact microwave/refrigerator and private temperature control. Full kitchen, laundry and study areas are available.

In an effort to continue to provide the best value to our students, we ask that each student provide his/her own bed linens/pillow/towels and any toiletries he/she made need during their stay on the island. The cost of the course is based on student single room occupancy. Media equipment such as laptop computers, mini-DVD players or TVs, and telephones are welcome, but are the sole responsibility of the participant. Participants are responsible for maintaing the cleanliness of their rooms and disposal of personal trash. Participants are also required to return their room key by Thursday morning.

Instructors
Surveying II: The Advanced Course Instructors are Mark Kouwe, Dr. Stacey Lyle, Dr. Peter Kuntu-Mensah, Bill Wedelich, Keith McNease, and Joseph Lafranca.
