[Bgsa] Fwd: CNAS Scholarship and Discovery Day - Sat. March 20th!

[Carla Essenberg]

Hello Everyone,

Saturday a week from tomorrow there will be an undergraduate
recruitment event on campus.  These will be the best applicants (i.e.,
the ones we would really like to have in our classes), so it will be
to our benefit to encourage them to come.  John and Cherysa would be
very grateful if we could interact with these kids and try to impress
them.  See Cherysa's message below.  I am going out of town tomorrow,
so I won't be organizing anything, but if you would like to help, you
could contact Cherysa.

Cheers,

Carla

Hi Carla:
Chair Rotenberry has asked that you share this information with BGSA members.
Next weekend on Saturday, March 20 is the CNAS SCHOLARSHIP and
DISCOVERY DAY.  All of the students who have been admitted as freshmen
to CNAS for Fall 2010, including Regents’ and Chancellor’s Scholarship
recipients, and their parents will visit UCR for the day.  There will
be events planned for the morning and between 1:00 - 4:00 pm the
incoming students and their parents will be circulating around the
campus with a punch card that has to be punched by at least three
departments that they visit.  At the end of the day, these cards will
be placed in a hopper, and we will draw for two laptop computers. The
drawing will provide the incentive for students to visit various
departmental open houses and really get out and see what our college
has to offer.
Please let me and Chair Rotenberry know by Monday, March 15th in what
way you and/or other BGSA members can participate.  It would be
wonderful for graduate students to display and talk about their
posters and also for them to interact with the visiting incoming
freshman.  This is a great opportunity to inject some reality coupled
with the "wow!" factor of studies in Biology for incoming students and
their proud parents.
Thanks, Carla!
