This meeting is also the first SciTS conference since formation of the International Network for the Science of Team Science (INSciTS), a professional society advancing related interests in team science. The conference leadership team —myself, Dr. Stephanie E. Vasko, Dr. Julie Thompson Klein, and Megghan Honke Seidel— has worked closely with the SciTS 2019 Planning Committee and the INSciTS board to design a conference that builds on existing research and practice strengths while also pointing in exciting new directions. One of our aims for SciTS 2019 is to demonstrate how team science animates and propels research in environmental science, agriculture, and natural resources. To this end, we are pleased to feature for the first time panels focusing on Indigenous approaches to team science and collaborative approaches in agriculture and natural resources. Other values drive SciTS 2019 as well. Diversity and inclusion have been fundamental commitments inin ourour planning,planning, drivingdriving ourour callscalls forfor participation,participation, invitedinvited presentations,presentations, andand feefee structure.structure.

  • Highlights 2010 NORTHERN RESEARCH STATION
    Highlights 2010 NORTHERN RESEARCH STATION Research that improves people’s lives and helps sustain natural resources in the Northeast and Midwest . OUR VISION: HEALTHY FORESTS, HEALTHY PEOPLE, HEALTHY COMMUNITIES Th e Northern Research Station serves the most densely populated and most heavily forested portion of the United States. We envision a region where trees and natural resources support a high quality of life; where resilient habitat supports thriving wildlife, fi sh, and plant communities; where clean water abounds and where people work together to sustain, and where necessary, restore the health of forests, from urban centers to deep wilderness. We further envision forests that provide a wide array of benefi ts and renewable products from hardwood for furniture to bark for native basketry, to bioenergy to heat homes and schools, to a sunset viewed from a mountain top. Th e Northern Research Station is dedicated, organized, and staff ed to provide the high-quality scientifi c information that people need in a form they can use. 1 FROM THE STATION DIRECTOR Th e Northern Research Station (NRS) is making a diff erence. From tools that help city planners expand urban tree cover and its associated environmental benefi ts to workshops that train foresters on the latest techniques for growing healthier forests, the work of NRS scientists is improving people’s lives and the health of our nation’s natural resources. Th ese pages highlight some of the scientifi c advancements made in 2010. More detail is available on our website, www.nrs.fs.fed.us. Th is year, the NRS, and the Forest Service as a whole, also made a diff erence in local communities through the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

  • Commencement Come to Us from Medieval Times When Academic Robes and Regalia Were Adapted from Ecclesiastical Garb
    COMME NCEMENT SATURDAY, MAY 9, 2020 GRADUATION WITH HONORS (Undergraduates only) In order to qualify for Graduation with Honors, an undergraduate student must have taken a minimum of 56 credit hours at Barry University, carrying letter grades of A, B, C or D, and must have maintained a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or above. Only courses taken at Barry University are computed in determining honors. The GPA is rounded using the third decimal place. Cum Laude – minimum grade point average of 3.50 (C) Magna cum Laude – minimum grade point average of 3.70 (M) Summa cum Laude – minimum grade point average of 3.90 (S) VETERAN MILITARY STUDENTS H Students who served in the Armed Services of the United States of America ( ) LEGACY STUDENTS Students who have at least one family member who is an alumna or alumnus of Barry University (L) ACADEMIC ROBES AND REGALIA The pageantry and color of an academic convocation such as today’s commencement come to us from medieval times when academic robes and regalia were adapted from ecclesiastical garb. Most robes were black to symbolize the democracy of scholarship, since they cover any dress or rank of social standing worn beneath. Bachelors’ gowns are cut with long, pointed sleeves; masters’ gowns feature closed slit sleeves; and doctors’ gowns are full-cut with double-belled sleeves and bars of velvet trim. Some universities have authorized doctoral gowns in a single color representative of the institution, such as Barry University’s scarlet, Harvard’s crimson, Notre Dame’s dark blue, and Fordham’s maroon.

  • Summer/Fall 2010
    ountthe M S Mount St. Mary’s College, Los Angeles Summer/Fall 2010 Keeping History College archivist protects 85 years of Mount treasures Mount Alum Day S New Teaching Fellows S Drudis-Biada Art 73701 mount.indd 1 7/26/10 10:17 AM from the president Dear Reader, ne of the more memorable lines in the Bible’s Book of OEcclesiastes is: To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven… Next year will be my 20th at the Mount and my 11th as president. After a good deal of reflection, I have decided that, while I still have health, energy, enthusiasm and love for what I do, I will conclude my presidency at Mount St. Mary’s College, effective July 1, 2011, or at a subsequent date when the search for a successor is completed. While a vibrant institution is never at a standstill, this moment in our history seems to be appropriate for a transition. The College is in a strong financial position; our enrollment continues to grow; and there are no emergencies. We completed a successful capital campaign in 2008, and our 2007–12 Strategic Plan is alive and advancing. While I have been truly blessed throughout my many years in higher education, serving at Mount St. Mary’s has been the culmination of an enormously satisfying educational journey. The Mount is a perfect fit for me. With the support of extraordinary trustees, superb alumni, distinguished faculty, talented staff, and generous regents and benefactors, and the unconditional love of my husband, Bob, together, we have made it possible to serve a most deserving and promising student population.
