When did "entry level" become equal to "Bachelors Degree"?
It became that at this company. We do a lot of things that I had never encountered at other companies. A degree in one of those fields generally helps with getting up to speed on the non-surveying tasks such as arborist work and environmental science. Degree is preferred, but I wouldn't think that not having one would be exclusionary to the right candidate who wants to survey and learn.

I don't question you wanting to hire an educated person, I just think it's a little presumptuous to call it "entry level". A great many people graduating from survey programs have more than a little experience on the job. You might well be discouraging very good candidates from applying.
