kpart of an International Field Trip in Biology class through the Study broad Program at Iowa State University,we had as a goal to impress university students of various academic backgrounds with the insects ofthe Serengeti region in east Africa.The Matthiessen quote hints at our a priori expectation and main obstacle-wondrous distraction. The promoted goal of the field trip was to educate and expose students to the natural history of northern Tanzania, with a focuson the mammalian and avian fauna, the varied grassland-bushland-montane forest ecosystems, Rift Valley geology, and Maasaiculture. The course, conducted during 2005, consisted of16 weekly,in-class lectures followed by a three-week safari in northern Tanzania to Serengeti, Tarangire, Lake Manyara and Arusha national parks, Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area, and Lake Natron. The class demography included an instructor (MER), a teaching assistant (JOB), and 16 students representing seven majors (Table 1). We expected that students would be so amazed at experiencing an environment with such a diverse and abundant charismatic megafauna that introducing insects to them (none of the students was an entomology major) would prove an interesting challenge. Weestablished a hypothesis that the relative desirability or appreciation of insects (or arthropods broadly) to non-entomology students would not be changed substantially by a biology field trip to Tanzania.
