On September 8, 2012 Abbe Ehlers (HRA) taught a benefit “yoga on the trail” on the old bridge over Lake Springfield to 90 people. This event raised over $1,500 for the Ozark Greenways! It was so fun and a great way to raise $$ for the Greenways trails system.
This summer Chris Barnhart and colleagues including former graduate student Megan Bradley taught a week-long course in Biology and Conservation of Freshwater Mussels for federal conservation professionals at the National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown, WV.
Janice Greene and Diann Thomas led a study away tour to Yachana in August 2012.
Tom Tomasi led a field trip to the dessert over the summer of 2012.
Les Reid, Jorge Rebaza and Xingping Sun led a group of nine NSF-REU students over the summer as the students worked on research projects in mathematics.
Chris Barnhart gave a keynote presentation at the International Meeting on Biology and Conservation of Freshwater Bivalves in Braganza, Portugal.
Jacob Swett, 2012 graduate, is working for Lockheed Martin in California.
I have attached a summary of FY12 Grant Activity for the entire university and the list of funded proposals is below!
