BGSA Welcome Back Event
BGSA,
Not sure what to do this Thursday? Please refer to the attached decision map the BGSA officers have created for you.
All models suggest you attend the 2013 BGSA Welcome Back event this Thursday at Thomson House from 5-7pm. The BGSA will be providing snacks, beverages and the First Annual Masterpiece crafts competition. Where we give you a picture like this or this and you have to recreate it with a team consisting of any combination of lab, friends, enemies from popsicle sticks, glue and some pipe cleaners with prizes for the best interpretation as judged by a panel. All you have to bring is a good time and your lab mates.
Come catch up with me, other graduate students, faculty and meet new people.
See you Thursday,
Monica
BGSA President
R, Pumpkins, and Grants!
Hello fellow biology minions!
This post comes as announcements of the past, present, and very near future. First up, the ghost of Halloween past shows how to get it done! Congratulations to the returning champions, the Ricciardi lab, who once again, captured first place in the annual pumpkin carving contest. This year’s theme was ‘mutation’ and Susan Bocti and Frank Scopelleti served as our illustrious judges. In second place was the L. Chapman lab, and in third place was the collaborative efforts of the Moon/Lasko/Dancourt lab!!
