Boss: Utah in the United States is famous for its beautiful desert and national parks—and an unusual school called Boulder Outdoor Survival School (BOSS). The teaching staff at BOSS follow an unusual principle: “know more, carry less.” Their aim (goal) is to teach people to survive in wild areas with no camping equipment. Teachers don’t give lectures on math or science, nor do they teach students by writing on boards. Instead, BOSS brings students outside, where they can learn about topics like making fires, finding water in the desert, and learning about local plants. Students then apply the lessons they have learned during 30-mile (48 km) hikes. A student’s final exam consists of going into the desert alone for three days with only a few simple tools. Even though it’s difficult, students say it’s an incredible and valuable experience. - - What is the topic of the passage?
