Happy New Year!!

I would like to meet with all CNAS faculty in 2015 to learn more about the opportunities and challenges that you see in front of us in 2015 and over the next 5-10 years.  I’ll provide coffee, tea and something sweet.  Gale Lininger will be contacting you about scheduling but if you would like to send her two dates that would work best for you – please do so today.  Each group will include approximately 10 faculty.  For those who have more to share – I am always available to meet with faculty and staff in CNAS!  If you had a publication in the last few months – please bring a copy!

It is time for me to submit names for news articles again – especially students.  Please send me the names of students (both undergraduate and graduate) and let me know why they are special (research, leadership, or service).

If someone contacts you about an interview for Minds Eye – it means that you have been nominated by your department head or me.  Please say yes!  It is a great way to share your accomplishments to the public.
