In the past seven years, HCC’s student chapter of the Wildlife Society has finished in the top five spots six times during the Southeastern Wildlife Enclave, which features a range of activities including team field competitions, a quiz bowl and art and photography contests. 

This year, the event was held at Mississippi State University, where 19 students from HCC placed second overall in intellectual competitions such as a lab practical, essays and orienteering; third place overall in physical competitions such as rifles, canoeing and fly-casting; fourth overall in art competitions; fourth in the team field competition and ninth in the quiz bowl. To take fourth place overall, HCC beat out teams from many four-year schools.
