We find an analytical expression for the specific heat of a Fermi gas in a
harmonic trap using a semi-classical approximation. Our approximation is valid
for kT>hw and in this range it is shown to be highly accurate. We comment on
the semi-classical approximation, presenting an explanation for this high
accuracy.
