<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The Fall 2021 TA application for courses in the life sciences (BCH, BIOL, BPSC, CBNS, ENTM, MCBL) is now open. The message below went to students in selected majors; however, you are welcome to send this to
other students whom you want to apply. More information about TAAC Policies and the calendar is on the front page of

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">As your students apply, you will receive notices to review the applications. Major Professors have from today, May 3, 2021 through May 21, 2021 to approve all of the applications for their students. If you
DO NOT want your student considered for a TA position this fall, please deny the application so that there is no confusion on student availability to TA. As you probably know, we had a serious situation in Spring 2021 with many applicants declining positions
after appointed. Anything you can do to help prevent this or to encourage your students to withdraw their application before appointment if they change their mind will be very helpful to the TA appointment process.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
