"Grand Canyon Chapter" » Flagstaff, Arizona
|
We are thrilled to announce the Grand Canyon Chapter of Northern Arizona University as our newest addition to SEEDS! Led by student representative Colleen Cooley the chapter officially became a part of SEEDS in March 2008. Stefan Sommers and Neil Cobb are the faculty advisors for the chapter. The purpose of this chapter is to foster a community amongst a wide range of disciplines through the promotion of ecology and providing access to ecological opportunities along with the facilitation of collaborating with other SEEDS Chapters at neighboring universities and colleges. |
Upcoming Plans
- invite guest speakers who could provide members information on opportunities related to ecology and/or discuss paths taken to become ecologists.
- conduct field trips to nearby Fossil Creek, the Merriam-Powell Research Station, the Museum of Northern Arizona, the greenhouse at NAU, career fairs and existing ecology labs on campus.
- community outreach activities to schools, clubs or groups working with underrepresented groups in and around Flagstaff are also planned.
- developing a website for the chapter.
We are very excited to have the NAU chapter in our network and wish them all the best for all of their endeavors.
