SMAB Meetings

Next Meeting:
March 31, 2012 at 9:00 AM

Please make plans to attend!
The agenda (and minutes of the last meeting) are available above.

Agenda includes review of nominations & the vote for the Charles & Lisa Bloomer Research Stipend, planning of upcoming student trips, and discussion about plans for the next Nobel Laureate lecture!


Highlights of last meeting:

October 1 , 2011

Dr. Fabrizio described plans to transition to Division II and the value this will bring to McMurry with higher academic standards in athletics! He also explaine how the expected 40%cuts in TEG ended up only being 28%.

Two new members were approved by the board: Dr. John Bloznack and Dr. James St. Clair. We'll welcome them to their first meeting in the spring!

At the conclusion of the meeting, members joined a large group of science and math students for lunch - a lot of good one-on-one quality discussions between the students and members about the students career aspirations. This was very well received by the students and will be a recurring event after each fall meeting.
